Quick Stovetop Chicken Dinner Recipe

Quick Stovetop Chicken Dinner

From lotsarecipes 16 years ago

This recipe is tasty and filling. It is also appealing to the eye because the veggies give such a vibrant colour to the dinner plate.

1. Add oil to heavy skillet and heat. Add chicken breasts in a single layer. Brown on each side for about 4 minutes each side.
2. Remove chicken from pan and cover to keep warm. Add stock and garlic to pan and scrape crunchies from the bottom of the pan. Return chicken to pan and cover pan with lid. Reduce heat and cook for about 10 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in the middle. Top with salsa and cheese and put the cover back on. Heat until cheese and salsa are heated through and the cheese is melted.
3. While chicken is cooking, rinse and drain the veggies. Place veggies in a microwave safe bowl and cook on HIGH for 5 minutes. (Leave bowl in the microwave until everything is ready to serve.)
4. While veggies are in the microwave, cook the rice following the instructions on the package. Remove from heat and leave covered to stay warm.
5. When chicken is ready, turn veggies on HIGH for 1 minute, fluff rice and serve all at the same time.

yw, momo_55grandma, I enjoy planning complete meals as opposed to just components put together. We have had this meal many times and rarely have leftovers!
