Does anyone know a tasty chicken and rice dish that ISNT COMPLICATED TO MAKE?!
Answers: Yup... 4 school i gotta bring in a dish that I cooked myself, and I chose chicken and rice and stuff... its gotta taste really good, not exactly simple, but really yummy and not that hard to make?? ideas?? recipes??
OK, for a family of 4 I use 1 1/2 cups rice, put into a 9X13 pan, add 3 cups water. Add the chicken breasts (or what ever part of the chicken you are using) Season and put in the oven at 350 for about 45 minutes.
At that time you can add some cream of mushroom soup. Or if you want a mexican theme you can add a can of rotel tomatoes. After you add the tomatoes or soup cook for about another 15 minutes or so, Just make sure the rice and chicken are completely cooked (not crunchy or bloody). Both of these are really Yummy. My kids love it.
Spicey Chicken Casserole
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers
1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup uncooked white rice
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
In a medium bowl combine the tomatoes/chiles, soup, rice, salt and pepper. Mix well. If necessary, add a little water.
Place chicken breasts in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Pour sauce mixture over chicken. Cover and bake for about 45 minutes, until rice is tender.
Well, i'm not sure where your from but i grew up in the south and when my grandmother wanted to make something simple but was in a hurry or not feeling well she'd just get chicken wings and rice and that was always delicious. You can boil or steam your rice at the same time that your boiling your chicken wings. I find that i like to pan sear my wings first. If you don't wanna deal with wings then you can always use boneless chicken breasts or even the pre cooked kind they have at the grocery store. just heat that in a pan with a bit of butter, salt and pepper. once the rice is ready, add a spoonfull of butter and a bit of black pepper. Then since your in school i'm assuming it may be a bit complicated to explain how to make gravey, soo you can get the jar of chicken gravy that they sell in the store. pour that in with your rice and let it heat to a boil and then add your chicken. You can eat it just like that or if your feeling sophistocated...lol....you can lay the rice down on your plate top with chicken and then drizzle with the gravy. Any thing green goes great as a side. My grandmother always made homemade biscuits to go along with it. It's not Gourmet, but damn it's good...good luck.
i love this one
