servings Ingredients
1 tablespoon Land O Lakes® Butter
1 (16-ounce) package chicken breast tenders
1 teaspoon purchased minced garlic
1 12 cups uncooked instant brown rice

How to make
-
STEP 1
Melt butter in 12-inch skillet; add chicken tenders and garlic. Cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, 6-8 minutes, until browned and no longer pink. Remove chicken from skillet; keep warm.
-
STEP 2
Add all remaining ingredients except spinach to same skillet. Cook over high heat, 2-3 minutes, until mixture comes to a boil. Cover; reduce heat to low. Cook, 8-10 minutes, until all liquid is absorbed. Stir in spinach. Serve chicken over rice immediately.
Tip #1
Because most spinach has dirt and sand attached to the leaves, packaged pre-washed spinach will help speed things along for you. All you need to do is measure and then cut into ribbons. Save the remaining for a mixed greens salad or wilted spinach or tuck into sandwiches in place of regular greens.
