Chicken and yellow rice is a staple dinner in our house.
I ALWAYS have a bag of Vigo yellow rice in our pantry.
Here is what you need to make this crazy easy and oh so delish meal...
- 3 to 4 Chicken Breast {if they are on the thick side I would pound them down}
- Bag of VIGO, I use the large family size
{I will only recommend this brand, this girl was raised on it and will not change}
- Bag of frozen peas
Season the chicken with a little poultry seasoning.
In a large pan add some olive oil and cook the chicken on medium to high heat for around 3 to 4 mins per side. You are just browning not cooking through.
Remove chicken and follow rice directions to start cooking. Once you are about to put the lid on pan, add chicken back in, slight submerged. And pour peas in around 1 1/2 cups.
Set the timer for the 20-25 mins per the bags directions.
While our chicken and rice was cooking the kiddies were playing so nice.
Then he wanted the pen.
And since I think he throws the cutest tantrums, I kept shooting instead of rectifying the problem. He will thank me later for documenting this.
The lip curl and brow scrunching, freakin adorable.
Please tell me I am not the only Momma that does this to their kids?
Oh, snap. Busted.
That face. I mean come on people.
Then the stove dings and like Pavlov's dog, all is right in tantrumville. That kid knows his dings, oven, toaster, and microwave.
Fluff up the rice and serve.
I love a little tomato and avocado with it. And of course you could do some black beans. Add a little hot sauce and you are good to go.
Enjoy.
