Tomato Chicken And Rice Recipes

Steps:

• In a small nonstick skillet, brown flour over medium-high heat; set aside. In a Dutch oven, saute the onion, green pepper, celery and green onions in oil until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in flour until blended. Stir in the remaining ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Discard bay leaf.

Steps:

• Heat dressing in large skillet on medium heat. Add chicken and garlic; cover. Cook 5 min. on each side or until chicken is browned on both sides. Remove chicken from skillet; set aside.
• Add canned tomatoes and water to skillet; stir in rice. Bring to boil; simmer, uncovered, on low heat 10 min. Return chicken to skillet. Top with cheese; cover.
• Cook 5 min. or until chicken is done (165ºF); top with remaining ingredients.

Steps:

• Open the tomatoes and strain the juice into a measuring cup. I usually get one cup of juice from two cans.
• In a 3-qt sauce pan partially melt the butter and add the rice. Mix the rice with the butter and saute 3-4 minutes on medium heat, stirring every 45 seconds or so.
• Add the reserved juice from the tomatoes and enough water to equal a total of 3 1/3 cups of liquid (the amount of water is from an Uncle Ben's package, so please check the cooking directions on your rice and adjust accordingly).
• Using medium-high heat add the oil and onions to your favorite skillet, cooking until translucent.
• Add the garlic, tomatoes, and chicken. Sprinkle on the curry powder and add 1/4-1/2 cup of water to the skillet. Cover and cook on medium-low heat for approx 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently to coat the chicken with the liquid.
• Remove the lid from the chicken and allow sauce to reduce as it simmers.
• When rice has about 3-4 minutes of cook time left add it to the skillet and stir all ingredients together. I like to add a little more curry powder and red pepper flakes at this stage also.
• When the rice is at your desired texture the dish is ready to serve.

Steps:

• Place leg quarters in large cooking pot.
• Add all the dry ingredients except rice and rub into the chicken until all leg quarters are coated.
• Turn on the stove to medium heat and once you hear the first crackling add the wet ingredients. Reserve rice and other 2-3 cups of broth for later.
• Once the liquid boils go to a lower heat for simmering.
• Cover and let cook for 1-1 1/2 hours stirring every 15-20 minutes so that all the chicken is exposed to the liquid.
• Once the chicken is cooked remove from pot and measure the amount of liquid you have left in a glass measuring cup.
• Add 2-3 cups of broth to the left over liquid to measure 4 cups liquid.
• Put liquid back in pot and once starts boiling add the rice. You may need to add some salt to the liquid if you like your rice a bit saltier.
• Lower stove to simmer and simmer the rice for 15-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked.
• Place chicken back in the pot and once the chicken is warm serve with rice.

Steps:

• For the rice: Soak the rice in 4 cups of cold water for 30 minutes.
• For the chicken: Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Arrange the chicken on a baking sheet in a single layer. Season all sides of the chicken with salt. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, use a pair of metal tongs to carefully add the pieces, skin-side down, to the oil. Do not crowd the skillet. Lower the heat to medium and cook until the skin is browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Flip the chicken and brown the other side, another 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer the chicken pieces to a clean baking sheet and set aside.
• In the same skillet, add the garlic and onions. Add the red pepper flakes and some salt and cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic and onions turn light brown, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the coconut milk, tomatoes and bay leaves and bring to a simmer. Arrange the chicken pieces skin-side up in a single layer in the sauce. Pour any juices into the sauce as well. Lower the heat and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes. Discard the bay leaves. Taste for seasoning. Keep warm.
• To cook the rice: While the chicken is cooking, heat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• On a baking sheet, combine the cumin, fennel, cayenne and cinnamon stick. Lightly toast the spices in the oven, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
• Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat and add the butter and onion. Season with salt and cook until the onion is translucent but not browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the spices. Drain the rice, reserving the soaking water. Stir in the rice and cook until you hear it crackling, 1 to 2 minutes. Gently stir in the reserved water. Season with salt and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and cook until the water has been absorbed and the rice is fluffy, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow the rice to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before "forking" it gently onto plates. Spoon the chicken and sauce over the rice and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
• Combine the rice, dried basil, garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt (see Cook's Note) and a few grinds pepper in the baking dish. Add the diced tomatoes and tomato soup and stir to evenly disperse.
• Place the chicken breasts on top of the rice mixture side-by-side in a single layer. Sprinkle the chicken breasts with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Sprinkle the onion soup mixture over the top of the entire dish, concentrating a little more heavily on the chicken (the onions will brown more evenly there and flavor the chicken).
• Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake until the chicken and rice are cooked through, about 1 hour and 25 minutes. Let sit, still covered, for 15 minutes to allow the rice to absorb any remaining liquid. Uncover and serve.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, heat broth and keep warm. In a large skillet, saute chicken in oil until no longer pink. Remove and keep warm., In the same skillet, saute mushrooms and onion in butter until crisp-tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Add rice; cook and stir for 3 minutes. Carefully stir in 1 cup warm broth. Cook and stir until all of the liquid is absorbed., Add remaining broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly. Allow the liquid to absorb between additions. Cook until risotto is creamy and rice is almost tender. (Cooking time is about 20 minutes.), Stir in the spaghetti sauce, cheese and reserved chicken; cook and stir until thickened.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Combine rice, mayo and boiling water in 8-inch square baking dish; cover. Let stand 5 min. Meanwhile, coat chicken with coating mix as directed on package.
• Add tomatoes to rice mixture; mix well. Top with broccoli and chicken.
• Bake 45 min. or until chicken is done (165°F). Sprinkle with cheese; bake 5 min. or until melted.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Trim excess fat from thighs. Wash and pat dry. Season moderately with pepper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons butter and olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chicken thighs and cook until well browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Pour sherry over top. Remove chicken to a plate. Drain excess fat, leaving about 2 tablespoons drippings in the skillet.
• Add onion and bell pepper to the skillet and saute over medium heat until onions are translucent and peppers have softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add rice and saute for 2 minutes. Add chicken stock, bay leaf, salt, pepper, and saffron; bring to a boil.
• Remove from the heat and lay chicken thighs in a single layer over the rice mixture.
• Bake, covered tightly, in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
• When the casserole has about 5 minutes left, melt remaining tablespoon butter in a skillet. Add tomato slices and saute until heated through.
• Place a tomato slice on top of each chicken thigh, then sprinkle Parmesan cheese over top. Return to the oven and bake, uncovered, until chicken juices run clear, about 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Let rest for at least 15 minutes before serving.
