Stir in water, apple juice, apple, onion, raisins, and seasoning packet from rice mix slowly. Bring to a boil. Place chicken over rice. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer until chicken breasts are no longer pink in the centers and rice is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
