1 cup raw rice
1/2 cup butter
4 boneless skinless Chicken breasts (or the equivalent of chicken tenders) sliced
1/4 cup chopped shallots
1 t dried tarragon
1 t fresh lemon juice and/or 1/2 t grated lemon zest (opt.)
1/2 lb. mushrooms halved or quartered

1 t salt

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare rice as directed. Let cool slightly. 2. Melt some butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook 1 minute per side. Stir in shallots and tarragon and saute until chicken is almost done. Add lemon if you choose. 3. Spread rice in a shallow 1 1/2 qt. buttered baking dish along the bottom and up the sides to create a well. 4. Place chicken in the well. 5. Add more butter to the skillet. Saute mushrooms with seasonings in butter about 5 min. Blend in flour. Add cream. Cook, stirring until thickened. (If you prefer more sauce - add some chicken broth and stir.) 6.
