I made a yummy, EASY chicken dish last night, so I thought I would share the recipe. This is a perfect weeknight meal- it is simple, healthy and delicious... seriously, this will be a homerun with your family and requires almost no prep work. Another bonus is that it is a very affordable meal, and provides plenty of leftovers.
Here's the 4-1-1:
4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
1 medium bag of Saffron Rice and Seasoning mix (the yellow rice mix)
2 cans of Chicken Broth (reduced sodium if possible)
1 cup Buttermilk Ranch Dressing
1/2 cup Parmesean Cheese
Salt and Pepper to taste
Garlic Powder to taste
1 Tablespoon of Butter or Margarine
Variety of sliced veggies (I used 1 green bell pepper, 1 tomato and 1 onion, but you could use zucchini, mushrooms, squash ... seriously the possibilities are endless!)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix up the rice seasoning mix with butter and the chicken broth, and pour uncooked into the bottom of a 13x9 ungreased glass casserole dish.
- Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper and garlic powder and lay on top of rice mixture.
- Cook at 350 for 35 minutes or until chicken is browned
- Pour Ranch dressing over chicken and rice, and top with sliced veggies. Top with Parmesean Cheese and bake for an additional 30 minutes.
That's it!! Try it- this will become a go-to dinner for you and your family- perfect for those chaotic evenings when there isn't a whole lot of time to cook :) Enjoy!
