Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    1 pack (about 1 lb) pre-cut fresh chicken breast tenders
    1 can low-sodium chicken broth (Swanson Natural Goodness)
    1 can 98% fat-free cream of chicken soup (Campbell's)
    2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
    1 cup diced celery
    1/2 medium yellow onion, diced
    1/4 tsp salt
    pepper to taste
    1/4 tsp poultry seasoning
    1 1/4 C brown rice (Riceland Extra Long Grain)

Directions

Cook rice according to package directions, less 5-10 minutes.

While rice is cooking, cut chicken into bite-size pieces.

BROWN the chicken in olive oil in a dutch oven or other lidded saucepan. Add the onion and celery and sweat for a couple of minutes. Deglaze with the can of chicken broth. Add the cream of chicken soup, plus 1/2 can of water. Stir to blend. Add salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning.

Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 10 minutes. Take off the heat and wait for the rice.

Rice will still be a little al dente and wet because you cut the time by 5-10 minutes. Add the rice to the chicken sauce and stir. Put the pot/pan uncovered in the oven at 375 for about 10-15 minutes to finish the rice.

Makes 6 1-cup servings! SO GOOD!!!
