Mamas Chicken And Rice Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, stir together warm water, brown sugar, orange juice, soy sauce, ketchup, white vinegar, garlic, red pepper flakes, five-spice powder, and orange peel until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is well combined.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat, and cook and stir the chicken until the outside is golden brown and the inside is no longer pink, 10 to 12 minutes. Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken, bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cover the skillet. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• While the chicken and sauce are simmering, bring the rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Set the rice aside and keep warm.
• Whisk the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of cold water in a small bowl until smooth, and stir into the chicken and sauce, a few teaspoons at a time. Let the chicken and sauce cook for about 2 minutes to thicken, then serve over hot cooked rice, sprinkled with green onion.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease sides and bottom of a casserole dish. Stir cooked chicken cubes, water, rice, cream of chicken soup, cream of celery soup, and cream of mushroom soup together in the prepared casserole dish; season with salt and pepper. Arrange butter evenly over the top of the chicken mixture. Bake in preheated oven until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through, 1 hour to 75 minutes. Cool 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and prep your 13x9 casserole dish with foil and spray.
• Rinse the dried beef slices under cold water and ring dry. Line the bottom of your dish with your slices.
• Season chicken with salt and pepper and arrange in the dish on top of the beef slices. Place remaining slices on top of the chicken.
• In a seperate bowl mix together cream of mushroom soup with the cream cheese. If this looks a little too thick for your taste add a dash of milk. Only a little at a time though, you don't want it runny. If you have trouble getting the cream cheese to break up all the way put it in the microwave for 30 second intervals until everything creams together smoothly.
• Pour this mixture over the chicken, making sure its even. It is actually very important that it is even --
• Cover with foil and bake for two hours. It seems long but if you get impatient you can tell the difference. 2 Hours makes this perfectly creamy and the chicken moist.
• Serve this over hot white rice and enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine the first 9 ingredients in a large pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 35 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer chicken and carrots to a platter; cool slightly. Pull chicken meat off the bones in bite-sized pieces. Discard the bones. Thinly slice carrots and reserve.
• Strain broth; discard the solids in the strainer. Pour 2 cups broth into a heavy medium-sized saucepan. Bring to a boil. Add rice and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook until broth is absorbed and rice is tender, about 20 to 25 minutes.
• Return remaining broth, chicken meat pieces, and sliced carrots to the same large pot used to cook the chicken. Bring to a simmer. Stir in the cooked rice. Season with salt and pepper.
• Ladle soup into bowls. Sprinkle with parsley, if desired, and serve.
