Nancy'S Chicken And Rice Casserole
- 2 packages of chicken tenders (around 2 lbs) - Don't use whole chicken breasts. I've found that the chicken tastes better and more tender when you use smaller cuts of chicken.
- Flour, salt & pepper (to taste)
- 1 cup margarine - Don't use butter!
- 2 chopped white onions - Not sure where you do your grocery shopping, but you can find pre-choppped onions at most stores.
- 4 cloves (around 2 tablespoons) of garlic, minced - I use the pre-minced garlic in a jar
- 1 cup diced green bell pepper - Again, most stores have pre-diced peppers
- 2/3 cup pimientos - These come in a jar.
- 2 cups uncooked white rice
- 3 cups chicken stock
- 2 dashes of chili powder
- 3 teaspoons cumin
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 dashes of pepper
- Roll chicken tenders in the seasoned flour.
- Put margarine in skillet and heat for a minute over medium heat (until it all melts). Add chicken tenders and brown on each side for about 3-4 minutes each side.
- In same pan, cook onion, garlic, and green pepper until onion is golden brown (about 5 minute).
- Add pimientos rice, stir over low heat 2 minutes.
- Add chicken stock, chili powder, cumin, salt & pepper.
- Put the mixture in a casserole dish (any big oven-safe dish) and bake covered for 1.5 hours at 350 degrees.
