Chicken – N – Rice

Chicken – N – Rice is the perfect recipe for chilly nights. I love to make this for family gatherings or when we have company over. It is a crowd pleaser for sure.  It is also frugal which helps with the budget when you are serving a larger crowd.  Rice is a great staple for stretching the budget.

It is an economical recipe that you can use to expand your grocery budget. Everyone leaves feeling full, but the rice is inexpensive and provides an opportunity to stretch your grocery budget. I hope your family enjoys this easy Chicken – N – Rice meal as much as mine does.
