Basque Chicken And Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Heat deep stove top casserole or pan and add oil and chicken (I season with salt and pepper).
• Brown chicken well and remove to platter.
• Leave oil in pan (I drain off all but 2 tablespoons).
• Add to pan the garlic, onion and bell pepper.
• Saute until onion is clear and then deglaze pan with the 1/4 cup water.
• Return chicken to pan and add the chicken stock, rice, bay leaf, and more salt and pepper to taste.
• Bring to boil, cover the pan, and turn down to a simmer.
• Cook 25 minutes or until rice is tender.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. When oil is hot, add the onions and red peppers and cook and stir until the onion becomes translucent, about 2 minutes. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add to the skillet. Saute until it begins to brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Add the BBQ sauce and stir until combined. Transfer mixture to a bowl.
• Add Knorr® Rice SidesTM- Rice Pilaf, water and buttery spread to the skillet and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking for 5 minutes. Stir in corn; cover and cook an additional 2 minutes. Return chicken mixture to the pan; stir to mix thoroughly. Remove from heat and let stand 2 minutes.
• Serve topped with chopped green onions.
