Ingredients

    Rice, Kraft Minute Whole Grain Brown Rice, 1 cup
    Coconut Milk, .5 cup
    Chicken Broth, 1 can (10.75 oz)
    Onions, raw, .5 cup, chopped
    *Peppers, sweet, red, fresh, 1 cup, chopped
    Garlic, 2 clove, chopped
    Curry powder, 1 tbsp
    Chicken Breast, no skin, 12 ounces
    Green Beans (snap), 2 cup
    Salt and Pepper to taste

Tips

I like mine kind of sweet, but my husband does not, so I sprinkled 1/2 a packet of splenda on my portion after plating.


Directions

1. Cook brown rice as directed on packaging, using 1 cup of chicken broth instead of 1 cup of water. Set aside.
2. Chop and cook 12 oz. chicken until done. Remove from pan.
(I used fresh green beans, so I prepared them by steaming them for 3 minutes and then running them under cold water.)
3. Add 1/2 cup chopped onions and 2 chopped cloves of garlic to pan - saute for 3 minutes.
4. Add 1 cup chopped peppers and 2 cups green beans - saute for 3 more minutes.
5. Add 1 tbsp curry powder, remaining chicken broth from can, and 1/2 cup coconut milk.
6. Add cooked chicken and rice to pan and stir.
7. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add salt and pepper to taste.
