Recipe Tips

To make this recipe even easier, you can use pre-cooked chicken. Rotisserie chicken works well for this recipe. Simply shred the chicken and add it to the skillet with the rice. If you don't have minute rice, you can use regular long-grain rice. However, you will need to adjust the cook time and liquid ratio accordingly. Check the package instructions for the cooking time and use 2 cups of chicken broth instead of 1 cup. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop until heated through.
