Brown Basmati Rice

Brown Basmati Rice Dinner!

Must TRY!

I was rearranging the pantry and found a zip lock bag full of brown basmati rice! I totally forgot I bought it, but quickly knew it was going to be part of my dinner. I also had some mushrooms and green onion. I knew they would go bad if I didn't use them so I thought I would incorporate them into the dish. I've been getting lazy when it comes to cooking meat and have a ton of chicken in the freezer! SOoo one thing lead to another and chicken made its way into my dinner.

Healthy and filling!

Like most of my dishes it contains few ingredients, and simple seasoning. However, this was a bit of a time consuming meal, but to me it was worth it! Here are the directions :)

Ingredients: (1-2 servings)
1/4 cup Dry Brown Basmati Rice
1 Green onion chopped
4 Mushrooms chopped
1 Garlic clove chopped
3 oz Chicken breast
Salt & Pepper to taste

(From bottom to top)
Garlic
Onion
Mushroom
Chicken

Directions:
1. Cook rice: Here is a link for Cooking Brown Basmati Rice http://chowtimes.com/2009/05/06/how-to-cook-basmati-brown-rice/ (60 min total)
2. Bake Chicken: Season chicken with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper. Set oven to 350, and cook til chicken is cooked all the way. My oven is really old so it takes a lot longer than mine so I don't wanna give you a time and have you burn your chicken.
3. Cook Veggies: Add a tsp of olive oil to a small pan and cook veggies till soft and mushrooms are cooked down.
4. Mix Together! add salt and pepper to taste
