Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast chopped into bite sized pieces
- ½ onion chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 red bell pepper chopped
- 8 oz baby bella mushrooms cleaned and sliced
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 14.5 oz cans fire roasted diced tomatoes
- 1 8 oz can tomato sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 ½ cups instant rice
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flake optional

Instructions
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken, garlic, onion, red bell pepper, and mushrooms. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook over medium high heat until the chicken is fully cooked and the veggies have started to tenderize. Stir frequently to promote even cooking. About 7 minutes.
- Stir in the tomatoes, tomato sauce, dried oregano, dried thyme, and red pepper flake. Bring to a boil.
- Stir in rice, remove from heat, cover and allow it to sit for around 5-7 minutes or until the rice is tender. Top with fresh basil and serve immediately.
Slow Cooker Instructions
- Add all the ingredients except the rice to a slow cooker and cook on high for 1 hour. Then turn off the heat, add rice, and keep covered for 5-7 minutes or until the rice is tender. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Tips
- Storage
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days for optimal freshness. Reheat in a microwave in 30-second intervals stirring frequently until fully heated through. I don't recommend freezing since the rice can become mushy when thawed.
- Ensure the rice is completely submerged in the liquid before covering the skillet or slow cooker.
