Chicken and Rice Packets

I stumbled across this recipe a while back for a chicken and rice foil packet. The actual recipe wasn't really our type of "thing" but the idea was good. And then you take my love for a sort of one-dish cooking with the packet...and voila...I threw something together tonight that one could call a "chicken and rice packet". So here is what I made, any other soup or sauce and/or vegetable could be easily swapped out for whatever your preference is. For example, you could do salsa instead of a cream soup and corn instead of green beans and POOF - a santa fe chicken and rice packet.

yield: 2 servings

2 chicken breasts: thawed
1 cup instant brown rice: uncooked
1 cup warm water
1 can fat-free cream of chicken soup
1 can green beans
whatever spices you want for your chicken

1. preheat oven to 400-degrees
2. soak rice in water for 5-10 minutes
3. take two pieces of foil for packets and spray one half of each with non-stick spray
4. once rice has soaked, place rice on foil
5. top with soup and green beans
6. place chicken breast on top
7. sprinkle with preferred seasonings
8. bake 30 minutes

We really enjoyed this, it was filling and tasted like one of those recipes you take from your family cookbook. Definitely a good cold weather recipe. Enjoy!

At 2 servings, this is 9.5 ww pts per serving. But the "one serving" on this recipe really equals two "servings" according to ww guildelines. So if you put it to a 4 servings recipe, that'd be 4.75 ww pts per serving! Yum!
