Directions
Season chicken breasts with pepper and salt. Combine rice, tomato, cheese, italian seasoning, choppped onion, and cayenne pepper. Spoon rice mixture on top of pounded chicken breasts; fold over and secure sides with wooden toothpicks soaked in water. Wipe off outsides of chicken breasts with paper towel. Coat a large skillet with cooking spray and place over medium-high heat until hot. Cooked stuffed chicken breasts 1 min. on each side or until just golden brown. Transfer chicken to shallow baking pan. Since I had extra rice mixture, I lined the bottom of the casserole with leftover rice and placed the chicken breasts on top. Bake at 350 F for 15 min. Note: I did not have Wehani rice so I used ¾ cup jasmine rice cooked in water.
After the rice was cooked I added 1 Tbsp salt free chicken base to the rice mixture. Carole Walberg
NOTES : A great dish for entertaining. Each chicken bundle comes with a surprise inside. It looks like you worked all day. Green peppers and mushrooms can be added to the rice mixture as well.
