Chicken and Rice – One Pot, Tried and True

As you read through my weekly Shabbos menus you’ll see that we have chicken and rice almost every other week.  It tastes great, is super easy to make, involves no clean up and my kids love it.

While some people prefer fancy dishes with a lot of spice, some of us like the feeling that comes with good, simple food.  I make this dish so often that it’s become a comfort food of sorts in our home.

This is the perfect dish for Shabbos lunch.  It heats up really well and has the main and side dishes all together in one pan.  The look of the dish is nothing impressive, but it’s a dish you can’t go wrong with.

Chicken_Rice Seriously… one day I will take a decent picture… it’s just not my ‘thing’ right now…

This isn’t much of a recipe, but for those of you who are like me and need clear instructions and exact measurements, here they are.
