I've had to do this for my fur babies also. I just took the fat off the chicken and sliced a chicken breast in to tenders then heated in a non-stick skillet no seasoning. Followed directions for rice in micro wave. Rice gets really hot because of starch and stays hot for a while. Took chicken after cooking and diced. Mixed with rice and done. You have to be really careful if you use chicken broth or stock. Needs to be fat-free. It can be really rich (upset tummy) and you don't want that. Took me all of about 10 minutes. On another note I do this for myself for a quick lunch when I want my version of stir fry,
