My family really likes this recipe. I usually double the recipe except I don't double the lemon juice (It'll get too lemony). I do also add canned mushrooms.
Ingredients:
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into strips
1/4 cup chopped onion
2 medium carrots, thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon butter
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons lemon juice
salt (optional)
1 cup uncooked instant rice
1/2 cup frozen peas
Directions:
1. In a skillet, cook chicken, onion, carrots and garlic in butter until chicken is cooked through.
2. Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine cornstarch, chicken broth and lemon juice. Sprinkle with salt, if desired. Bring to a boil; cook and stir 2 minutes, or until thickened. Stir in rice and peas (and mushrooms if adding). Remove from heat, cover and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff with fork. Serve with chicken.
