Chicken Pandemoniyum

I tried this new recipe from my Eat, Shrink and Be Merry cookbook. It sounded really good and is all done in one skillet!! What could be easier?? It was also packed with flavor! You forget it is healthy for you with all that yummy taste!!
I used about 2/3 of the amount of chicken the recipe calls for. I still had enough to serve 4 people!! Serve with a salad and it is a perfect meal!


Chicken Pandemoniyum

3 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 lbs = 568 g)

2 tsp olive oil

3 cups sliced mushrooms

3/4 cup chopped onions

1 tsp minced garlic

1 pkg (6.3 oz = 180 g) Uncle Ben's Long Grain & Wild Rice original recipe

1 1/4 cups chicken broth

1/2 cup dry white wine

1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese.


1. Cut chicken breasts into large chunks (about 6 pieces per breast). heat oil in a 10 inch non-stick skillet with a tight-fitting lid. Add chicken pieces and cook over medium-high heat for about 4 minutes, stirring often, until chicken is lightly browned all over Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.


2. Add mushrooms, onions, and garlic to the same skillet. Cook and stir until vegetables begin to soften, about 3 minutes. If vegetables start to stick, add a little water or broth.


3. Add rice and seasoning pouch. mix well and let cook for 30 seconds. Stir in broth and wine. Return chicken to skillet. Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes, until rice is tender and liquid is absorb3ed. Remove from heat. Let stand, covered, for 10 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.


So good.
