Two steps forward, one step back

I still had some of yesterday's chicken uncooked in the fridge, so it became today's chicken.  Fortunately, I had bought an appropriate side at Safeway ages ago just for this occasion.  It makes my dinner look pretty boss.  Have a look:

Is that a gorgeous plate or what?  I cooked the chicken the same as yesterday except I salted it properly, the rice is a chicken-flavor Knorr Rice Side that I got for $1, and the broccoli is, yes, from my invaluable frozen pack.  All in all, this wasn't too much like eating leftovers.  It became a dinner of its own, and it all was pretty darn tasty if I do say so myself.  Makes up for the crappy first batch of chicken I made yesterday when the pan was too hot.  The microwave made batch one edible.  I made this batch edible.

The only thing that would've made this meal the best is if it wasn't semi-homemade.  I shouldn't rely on these prepackaged sides.  I should try to make my own fancy, flavored rice!  Oh well.  There'll be plenty of time to try that for another dinner.
