Expert Tips

Purchase precut chicken for stir-fry from the meat department of your supermarket and save time.

Boost flavor when you stir in 2 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules with the water, and omit salt. Add 1 teaspoon onion powder if you like.

I used fresh veggies & regular long grain rice & chicken broth. I sautéed celery, carrot, red pepper, onion for about 5 minutes then added chicken & mushrooms, I seasoned with garlic pepper & old bay. When chicken was browned I added chicken broth & brought to a boil then topped with broccoli, covered the pan and cooked for 30 minutes. I sprinkled on the cheese and let sit for 10 minutes. My husband normally does not like this kind of one pan meal but he loved it.

Have made something very similar,except layered in a 9x13 along with Cream of Mushroom & Cream of Chicken Soup(with milk to thin out the soups) and baked it. Never any left in my household. Hubby gobbles it up

This is a good base recipe, I agree with those who said they made it without any extra spices and said it was bland. That being said, cooking the chicken with spices and diced garlic, then using a chicken boolean cube after you add the water and boil makes the difference. I also found that if you add frozen veggies and rice at the same time and take it off the burner the frozen veggies do not get hot enough. Instead, I added the water boiled it, added the veggies, boiled that and then added the rice and took it off the burner. It worked perfect!
