The Return of Chicken and Rice...

Okay, a few of you want to know how i cook my chicken. I really don't do anything! I just cut it up in tiny pieces and cook it over the burner. After the chicken is basically cooked i throw in broccoli with it or peas...you can throw anything in! Then we put it over rice and pour some General Tso's sauce over it. OR i cook chicken in the crockpot all day, after all cooked i shred it up and add teriyaki sauce before we are ready to eat.(i actually got this one from Anna Jackson) Throw it over rice and wah lah. It is sooooo simple, but it really does taste good. One more recipe i have is called Dijon Basil Chicken. This chicken is soooooo tasty and good. Here is the recipe...
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup dijon mustard
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar or red wine vinegar
3 TBS. chopped FRESH basil(if you use dry basil use 1-2 tsp.)i recommend fresh.
1 TBS. minced garlic
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
Mix all ingredients together(set aside some sauce before adding chicken, to spoon over chicken when serving!) Add chicken breasts, marinade for at least 1/2 hour or for several hours. In case you didn't know, you can throw the sauce and chicken in a freezer bag to marinade it. Broil 5 minutes on each side. It is very tasty! Enjoy
