Easy Cheesy Chicken and Rice
8 steps
Prep:5minCook:30min
This is my absolute favorite quick weeknight meal. You can easily use up leftover chicken, boil frozen chicken breasts, pick apart a rotisserie chicken, or even pop open some canned chicken for convienience. You need only a few other items to make this stovetop meal and the leftovers reheat beautifully. It’s also perfect for making ahead of time; mix the sauce and rice together in a large container and store in the refrigerator. If you want to make this meal healthier, broccoli pairs nicely and the kids hardly notice a veggie has been snuck in.
