One-Dish Chicken and Rice Bake

We had this for dinner tonight and it was a great and FAST meal for a night were I was late coming home from work.

1 can cream of mushroom soup (condensed) -- you can use cream of chicken if you are not a mushroom eater
2 soup cans water
1 packet onion soup mix
1 1/2 c white rice
4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Preheat the oven to 325.

In a saucepan, combine soup, two soup cans of water and onion soup mix over medium meat. Beat with whisk to break up condensed soup and heat just enough to mix all ingredients together (about 4-5 minutes).

In 9x13 inch baking dish, spray with non-stick spray (I used olive oil spray). Pour in rice evenly and top with chicken breasts (thawed). Pour over soup evenly to coat.

Cover with aluminum foil tightly and place in middle rack of the oven for 40-70 minutes, until chicken is cooked through. This also works for boneless, skinless chicken tenders (You'll cook them about 40 minutes; Thicker breasts will cook longer).

Fluff rice with a fork and serve with chicken.

Serves 4. (This reheats well for leftovers)

Instant Pot Chicken Marsala

Day two with my Crock-Pot Express (CPE), aka Instant Pot. Tonight, we are making Chicken Marsala, one of The Captain's favorites. Since I'm preparing to get back into the 21 Day Fix starting on January 15 (with the new 80 Day Obsession plan!), I'm going to enjoy the chicken and green beans only, while the rest of the family will have egg noodles with their chicken. I found a simple enough recipe on Pinterest that I'm going to adapt to work for our family's tastes a little bit better. Here is the plan: Ingredients: - 2 lbs chicken thighs, boneless, skinless - 1 T olive oil - 1/2 t garlic powder - 1/2 t salt - 1/4 t black pepper - 1/2 yellow onion, diced - 1 pint sliced baby Bella portobello mushrooms - 1 c Marsala wine - 1/4 c chicken stock or broth - 1 T minced garlic Instructions: - Set device to “Sauté” and add oil.

Creamy Tomato Sauce

This is my best low point tomato sauce concoction yet! Let's get to it: Ingredients: 2 cans diced tomatoes (do not drain) 4 t EVOO 1/4 c fat free sour cream 2 T Italian Seasoning 2 t garlic salt 1 t dill 1 t thyme Combine all ingredients except the corn starch. Bring to a boil and simmer on med-low for 15-20 minutes to begin the thickening process. Transfer about 1/4 c of the liquid from the tomatoes to a small bowl and mix well with corn starch to create a roux. Once free of lumps, add the roux to the tomatoes and stir well. Continue to simmer for another 5-10 minutes on low until ready to serve. Stir periodically to ensure the sauce doesn't get too thick or begin to dry (add a little water of this occurs). PP+ 2 for 1/4 of the tomato mixture Serve over pasta (I served it over beef ravioli). Enjoy!
