Directions:  
Step 1: Pre-heat the stove at 450 degrees, spray some oil in a pan and place it on a hot burner.

Step 2: Put the chopped onion in the pan and saute for 2 minutes. While that cooks, chop up the garlic and cube the chicken breast. Put the chopped garlic in the pan with the onions and saute for another minute. After that add the cubed chicken breast and cook for 5 minutes. The chicken will finish cooking in the oven.

Step 3: While the chicken is cooking with the onion and the garlic, slice up the carrots and bell pepper. Then, get a small casserole dish and add the fat-free milk, the chicken broth cubes, the cornstarch and mix. Then add the rice.
