Solo Chicken Breast And Rainbow Rice Recipes

Steps:

• In a small resealable plastic bag, combine the oil and lime juice; add chicken. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for at least 1 hour., Drain and discard marinade. Grill chicken, uncovered, over medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Meanwhile, in a skillet, saute onion and peppers in butter until tender. Stir in the rice, salt and pepper; heat through. Serve with chicken.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Toss the chicken with the paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Place the chicken skin-side down in the skillet and cook undisturbed until the skin is golden but not too dark, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate using a metal spatula and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet.
• Add the carrots, celery and shallots to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened but not yet turning golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, thyme, oregano, lemon zest, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook just until you begin to smell the garlic, about 1 minute. Stir in the rice and cook undisturbed until lightly toasted, about 2 minutes. Pour in the broth, add 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir to combine, then add the chicken thighs back to the pan, skin-side up. Bring the liquid to a boil then cover, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove the lid from the pan and broil until the chicken skin is crispy and golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with the chives.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bring 2 cups water and white rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
• At the same time, bring remaining 1 cup water and wild rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender, 30 to 45 minutes. Drain excess liquid, fluff rice with a fork, and cook uncovered for 5 minutes.
• Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and onion and saute until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside in a large bowl and stir in diced chicken, pecans, and sunflower seeds. Stir in cooked rice. Add mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, salt, and pepper. Transfer to a casserole dish. Spread crushed saltine crackers over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Spread Cheddar cheese over the casserole and return to the oven until cheese melts, about 5 minutes more. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Combine the wild rice and the chicken broth in a covered sauce pan.
• Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 40 minutes.
• Cover the chicken breast with the olive oil and then the salt and pepper.
• When the wild rice is cooked, place into a baking dish, place on top the chicken breast, next the onion, and finally, pour the mushrooms and the liquid from the can.
• Cover, and bake in a 350 degree (f) oven for 45 minutes.

Steps:

• In the afternoon, or at least one hour before making the dish, combine the olive oil,juice. Place chicken breast in a plastic bag and add olive oil juice mixture then refrigerate for at least an hour.
• Make sure that the marinade coats the meat. The rest of this process should only take 20 minutes if the steps are followed in order.
• Remove the chicken and place on a hot grill ( total cooking time will be 20 minutes.) and immediately proceed to the next step.
• Add the water to the rice and place in a covered pan over a stove burner with a very low flame.( total heating time will be 15 minutes). After the chicken and the rice have cooked for 10 minutes; turn the chicken breast over.
• Chop the onion and peppers and set aside. After the chicken and rice have cooked for another 5 minutes, turn off the flame under the rice, but do NOT remove the cover.
• Heat up a small amount of butter and/or olive oil in a frying pan; heat the onion and bell peppers until soft. After the chicken has cooked for an additional 5 minutes ( 20 minutes total) remove from the heat. Remove the cover on the rice and stir in the heated onion and bell pepper.
• Pour the rice mixture on a plate and place the chicken breast on top.
• Salt ( I like lemon salt) and pepper to taste.
