Step 1
Cook the 1 package instant yellow rice according to package directions, about 15 minutes, until fluffy and tender.
Step 2
While rice cooks, bake the 2 cups frozen fries at 425°F for 18-20 minutes, until golden and crispy.
Step 3
Beat the 1 egg in a shallow bowl. Dip each of the 2 chicken breasts in the egg, then coat with the 1 cup breadcrumbs, pressing to adhere.
Step 4
Heat the 3 tbsp vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high. Fry the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temp 165°F).
Step 5
Serve the chicken with the rice and fries, and add tomato slices and lettuce if you have them.
