• 1/4 cup uncooked long grain rice
• 1/4 cup medium pearl barley
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1-2/3 cups chicken broth, divided
• 2/3 cup water
• 3 to 4 medium fresh mushrooms, sliced
• 2 tablespoons chopped green onion
• 2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
• 2 teaspoons canola oil
• 1/3 cup white wine or additional chicken broth
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1/2 cup evaporated milk
• 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
• 1/2 teaspoon dill weed
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper

1. In a small saucepan, saute rice and barley in butter for 4-5 minutes or until lightly browned. Add 1 cup broth, water, mushrooms and onion; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 20-22 minutes or until tender.
2. Meanwhile, flatten chicken to 1/2-in. thickness. In a large skillet, brown chicken in oil on both sides. Add 1/3 cup broth and wine or additional broth. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes on each side or until chicken juices run clear. Remove chicken and keep warm.
3. In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and milk until smooth; gradually stir into pan juices. Stir in the lemon zest, dill, salt, pepper and remaining broth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Let rice mixture stand for 5 minutes; fluff with a fork. Serve chicken with rice. Top with dill sauce.
