Rice goes a long way and is very cheap in large quantities.

Back in the day I would microwave a chicken breast (cut it up and zap it til it's totally white inside and the juices are clear), cut it up and get rice (available in microwaveable packets, yet cheaper if you can find a way to boil or microwave traditional rice). Choose your favorite flavored rice (be careful of sodium though, they are very high in salt) or a traditional white/brown/etc. In a separate bowl/cup/etc. mix together your favorite BBQ sauce with whatever kind of flavor you're looking for. Think about if you want it sweet, spicy, salty, etc. My favorite would be to mix some maple syrup and bbq sauce with a dash of soy sauce and sometimes a little OJ (pulpless) or a pinch of black pepper. Taste it and see what you like, adjust accordingly. Then cover the cut up chicken in it and then throw the bits of chicken in the rice with the sauce that's on them. Mix everything together and add a can of corn (peas, beans etc.) or canned sliced carrots if you want. Heat it until everything is appropriately hot (but be careful not to dry out the rice, you may want to add a few teaspoons of water).
