Baked Chicken and Rice

Baked Chicken and Rice

A cold front, of course in January it would be considered a warm front, came through the Ohio Valley yesterday.  What this means to me is that I have to start to consider wearing socks again… I hate socks.  It also means comfort food; good food with little effort.  When I make this baked chicken and rice I usually wind up thinking, “I should make this more often.”

As you can see above, this recipe is in our Easy Recipe I Can Cook category of our website: www.emealsforyou.com.   I buy the chicken breasts when they are on sale at the market then freeze them until I need them.  Thaw them, sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper, spread the rice and onions, pop in the oven and there you have it.  I served this with spinach but you can put whatever vegetable you can get your kids to eat with it.  I finished with some homemade Lemon Italian Ice, another very easy recipe you can make.

    I had baked chicken last night for dinner and it didn’t quite look as juicy and tender as this one (don’t tell my girlfriend…) This looks great! :)
