Add lemon juice and spice up the chicken and rice mixture with seasoning blends like dill or Italian or Greek.

We make this recipe on a regular basis at our house. We chunk the chicken before cooking so when it's time to eat, we don't have to go around cutting the kids' meat. An easy, inexpensive, tasty meal that keeps our family of 7 coming back for more.
