I’ve made this dish twice. The first time, we ate it but didn’t quite enjoy it. After we had it the second time, the Wee One thanked me for cooking it. The next day, he ran out to my car after I pulled up in the driveway after work. He wanted to eat the left overs for dinner that night.
The night we had it, he ate a big portion of chicken and 1/2 of another portion. He had a HUGE amount of the rice both nights. That child loves his rice.
My mother-in-law is an Uncle Ben’s rice snob. She’ll only cook up Uncle Ben’s so she did not like the fact that I used instant rice. Other than that, she loved the recipe.
This recipe is a KEEPER. It’s a perfect Sunday dinner. The main dish and side are cooked together. Cook up some veggies or toss a salad and you have a complete meal.
