I grew up with this recipe and because I make it often never realized how simple this would be for others to make. It is a favorite in our house, hope it becomes one in yours. It is a one dish wonder! amounts can vary for taste or serving size. I make extra even though only 3 of us here so I have it for lunch or leftovers. Freezes well. Ingredients:
8 pieces chicken, cut up bone in (an kind will do i use a bend of breasts, legs, and thighs or what is on sale or in freezer) |
1 cup rice |
2 cups chicken broth or 2 cups water, and boullion mixed |
1 tablespoon basil |
2 tablespoons fresh garlic (i use more for personal taste, usually 4-6 tbsp) |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. mix rice, broth, seasoning, and garlic together in 9 x 13 casserole dish.
2. place chicken pieces on top if rice mix.
3. cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hr or ntil chicken comes out without pink.
4. THIS WILL VARY DEPENDING ON THE THICKNESS OF YOUR CHICKEN PIECES.
5. Check oven after 45 min and then adjust time to suit.
