Ingredients:
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 1/2 cups uncooked long-grain rice
5 medium carrots, sliced
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper
4 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley (optional)
Directions:
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the chicken in the butter. Remove and keep warm. Add the rice, carrots, onion, mushrooms and red pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice is brown and the onion is tender. Stir in the broth. Place the chicken over the rice mixture. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, until the rice is tender. Stir in the parsley, if using. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
