  • 4-6 Servings
  • Prep: 5 min. Cook: 55 min.

Ingredients

  • 1 package (3 to 4 pounds) Tyson® Fresh Whole Chicken, cut up
  • 1 tablespoon Crisco® Oil
  • 1 can (14 ounces) Swanson® Chicken Broth
  • 3 medium tomatoes, chopped
  • 3/4 cup uncooked long grain rice
  • 1/4 cup Kikkoman Soy Sauce
  • 1 package (10 ounces) frozen peas, thawed
  • 1 can (4 ounces) diced green chilies

Directions

  • In a Dutch oven or large skillet, brown chicken in hot oil over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from pan; set aside. Drain pan. Combine chicken broth, tomatoes, rice and soy sauce in same pan; bring to a boil. Arrange chicken pieces over mixture; cover and simmer 30 minutes. Stir in peas and chiles; bring to a boil. Cover and simmer 10 minutes longer or until chicken juices run clear. Yield: 4-6 servings.

    Preparation Tips: To brown chicken properly, cook it quickly in a preheated hot skillet over medium-high heat. Proper browning will give the meat an appetizing color and a richer flavor. Though often associated with Asian cooking, soy sauce can be used to boost the flavor of non-Asian Dishes such as pot roast, minestrone or pasta sauce. A small amount of soy sauce will not add a soy sauce flavor. It will simply enhance the flavors of the dish and make the ingredients taste better. Try it in your favorite soups, sauces and marinades.
