Chicken Rice Stove Top Dish

Submitted by WiGal

"This is a small but tasty and easy recipe that uses leftover chicken. I like the fact that it does not have any canned creamed soup in it. I usually serve it in a bowl along with Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits Copycat. Enjoy:)"

A nice, easy, one-pot meal that is great for a busy weekday. I served with the cheddar biscuits as you suggested and we really enjoyed this - thanks for sharing!
