Time 35m

Yield 1 cup, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 chicken bouillon cubes
4 cups hot water
4 cups instant rice or 2 cups standard rice
2 medium chopped onions or 4 tablespoons dried onion
4 chopped garlic cloves or 2 teaspoons packaged chopped garlic
8 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite sized pieces
6 tablespoons olive oil
2 (1 1/2 ounce) packages taco seasoning
1 1/2 cups hot water
1 cup canned crushed tomatoes
8 tablespoons sour cream (1 medium sized container)
12 flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Dissolve bouillon in water, bring to a boil add instant rice and set aside. If using standard rice, add rice to water mixture, bring to a boil , cover, cook on low for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place olive oil in a large dutch oven, cook the onion until caramelized. Then add garlic, long enough to let the garlic sweat.
  • Add the cut up chicken to the onion garlic mixture, salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cook until chicken is completely cooked.
  • Add taco seasoning and water, mix well and simmer for another 3 minutes.
  • Add crushed tomatoes.
  • (For super spicy add Tabasco sauce to taste).
  • Add rice mixture.
  • Stir in sour cream.
  • Place 1 to 1.5 cup measurements into containers.
  • Place 1-2 tortillas in wax paper, presteaming or spraying with no-stick spray helps keep them from drying out too much.
  • Fold up the wax paper as tight as you can, I seal it like an envelope and tape it shut with masking tape.
  • Place on top of rice/chicken mixture, cover container and freeze.

MEXICAN CHICKEN- OAMC



Mexican Chicken- OAMC image

This is really a versatile recipe, and economical, too. It can be used so many ways... as a filling for burritos, a topping for nachos, or as a side dish. I've also served it in bowls with nachos for scooping. I like to add some cheese no matter how I serve it. I had never cooked with barley before I started making this, but found it easy and tasty- kind of like rice. As prepared here it makes a lot, but you could easily half the recipe.

Time 30m

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced (or more to taste)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 cups water
2 cups Quaker quick barley (you can use regular barley- see note below)
2 (16 ounce) cans chopped tomatoes, undrained
2 (16 ounce) cans tomato sauce
3 cups chicken broth
2 (16 ounce) cans whole kernel corn, drained
6 cups cooked chicken (chopped or shredded)
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven, cook the onion and garlic in oil until tender.
  • Add in all ingredients (including spices) except for chicken. Bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the cooked chicken; continue simmering another 10 minutes or until the chicken is heated through and the barley is tender.
  • To freeze: cool, spoon into quart-sized freezer bags, label, and freeze flat.
  • To serve: Thaw chicken mixture. Heat in a skillet until hot. Serve over corn tortilla chips or scoop into flour tortillas, fajita-style.
  • Note: If you choose to use regular barley rather than quick cooking barley, you'll want to cook it ahead of time, which takes about an hour. Follow the directions on the box.

SWEET SALSA DUMP CHICKEN - OAMC



Sweet Salsa Dump Chicken - OAMC image

The theory is you dump this in a bag and freeze to pull out later. There are many variations which I will post separately but it's amazingly easy to make these up and have a different "dump" chicken every week!
