Sometimes I like to make chicken and rice and depending upon my time factor, I might make it all completely from scratch, OR I might do this quick and easy recipe!
Quick Skillet Chicken & Rice
1 large can chicken breast meat
2 cans chicken broth
1/2 t basil
1/2 t garlic powder
1 c regular rice
1 lb package frozen veggies
Pour the chicken broth into the skillet. Add the herbs and the rice. Heat to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover. Cook for 5 minutes.
Stir in the FROZEN veggies and the chicken (with the juices), add the lid back on and cook for 15 more minutes.
DONE!!!

This can be made with fresh chicken, just cube it up and cook the chicken first, then add it in at the end. You can also use rotisserie chicken that you’ve picked off the bone, but the easiest, fastest way is to use canned chicken. It’s in the grocery store right there with the tuna. I usually buy the bigger can, I think it’s 20 or so ounces. GREAT to keep on hand!
