Chicken and Rice - One Pot Recipe

<< Chicken and Rice is a terrific chicken recipe that has everything you are looking for: color, nutrition and simplicity. It is prepared in a single skillet or Dutch oven and is ready in 45 minutes. This delectable chicken recipe is appropriate to serve everyday or for family and friends. If there are any leftovers, (a big "if"), they taste even better after being refrigerated for a day or two.

Feel free to increase the quantities of vegetables and chicken -as far as rice is concerned, make sure that you add twice the amount of liquid as uncooked rice. You may also choose to prepare the dish without rice or serve the Chicken and Rice over rice that has been previously cooked.

• 2-3 tbsp. oil
• 1 onion, diced
• 1 carrot, diced
• 1 red pepper, diced
• 4 garlic cloves, minced, or 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• 1 cup rice, uncooked
• 1 chicken, cut-up, with or without skin
• 1/4 cup tomato paste
• 1-3/4 chicken broth
• 1 tbsp. soy sauce
• 1/2 tsp. salt, or to taste
• 1/4 tsp. pepper

Place chicken on top of rice mixture and pour remaining ingredients over top. Mix ingredients to make sure that the rice is distributed all over - if it is all at the bottom, it may stick.

Bring to a light boil and cover. Reduce heat and simmer for 35-40 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed. If mixture becomes dry, add a few teaspoons of water.

This dish is a convenient "go to" dinner option for any occasion.

Serves 4.
