Very simple and fast. Kids and adults love it. Got the recipe from a girl I worked with years ago. Not sure where she got it. You really need to use the tenders NOT chicken breasts for it to be the best. Also, if you just use regular canned tomatoes it will be bland. You need to use Rotel which is tomatoes and green chilis. You could also add some onion but I omit because the less prep the better. This is just dump and cook! This could also probably be microwaved but I have never tried it. Prep time is less than 5 minutes and only 1 pan to clean.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 lb chicken tenders, raw
1 (16 ounce) can chicken broth
1 (10 ounce) can rotel
1 cup white rice, uncooked
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
garlic powder
salt & pepper

Directions

1
Using a large, deep skillet with a cover pour can of chicken broth and can of rotel into skillet.
2
Stir in cup of rice.
3
Lay chicken tenders on top of rice and sprinkle with garlic, salt and pepper. Go easy on the pepper if you don't like it too hot because the Rotel has a little kick to it.
4
Cover and cook over medium high heat for 20 minutes or until chicken is opaque.
5
Remove from heat and sprinkle with the cheese. Stir lightly until cheese melts slightly.
6
Serve with a nice salad.

Super easy and super delicious! I didnt have the kind of tomatoes she called for, but instead I used italian diced (since thats what I had in my cupboard- it was actually italian diced with orgeno and basil think) and added at can of diced chilis. It tasted wonderful!

So glad I found this one! Healthy, cheap, couldn't be easier and very yummy! Instead of the Garlic Powder (somehow I was out!) I put in a packet of Ranch Dressing Mix. Kids loved it! This will be a monthly meal at our home.

I can't believe I forgot to rate this wonderfully easy and satisfying dinner. I followed the recipe exactly and it came out terrific. It was a tad spicy for us but none the less great. Thanks so much, I will be making this again for sure!
