The easiest way is working with White Arrow (A) - Direct Selection Tool.

Just Select ONLY rectangle (not text and rectangle) and add stroke (F10) or/and fill

That's it

With the Appearance panel open, use the Direct Selection tool to select just the text box path. That will give you fill and stroke options for the path only, independent of the text..

If you're having trouble selecting the text box with the white cursor it's best practice to click on the corners of the object to make sure you've selected the text box, not the text.
