Barbecue Chicken and Rice

November27
  • 1 pound chicken breasts, boneless, skinless (I used a 20-oz package)
  • 2 tbsp canola oil
  • 1 1/2 cups barbecue sauce (I used a hickory flavored sauce)
  • 1 cup water
  • 11-oz can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 small green pepper, chopped
  • 1 small red pepper, chopped
  • 2 cups instant rice, uncooked

Slice chicken breasts into strips or chunks.  Heat oil in large skillet and brown chicken.  Stir in barbecue sauce, water, corn, and peppers.  Bring to a boil.  Reduce heat.  Cover and simmer 5 minutes.  Remove from heat.  Add rice and cover.  Let stand for 5 minutes until rice is fluffy.
