This colorful side dish has proven itself the best rice recipe with family and friends. One of my late son's friends always requested 'that rice' when he came over for dinner. It's delicious served with grilled salmon, beef, turkey, lamb roast or ham. - Jayne Shiley, Campbellsport, Wisconsin

"COMPANY'S COMING" RICE



It just doesn't get much easier than this fool-proof rice sidedish. It won't look like much when it goes in the oven, but trust me, it comes out perfect every time. I've been making it for holiday dinners for years. It takes 5 minutes or less to throw together and can go in the oven with those other last minute dishes or prepare it ahead and reheat in the microwave at serving time if oven space is a problem. Note: The original recipe called for 1/2 cup butter but I found that to be excessive.

COMPANY CHICKEN AND RICE



Company Chicken and Rice image

Created this 40 years ago, rice was cheap and filling and we were broke! It turned out to be one of the overall family favorites and was made for special occasions and "Company". I still get requests to make it. It can be made totally from scratch or with shortcuts, like canned chicken broth and a rotisserie chicken.

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 whole chicken breasts with bones
1 c butter
6 c water
1 medium onion chopped
1 green pepper chopped
1 stalk celery chopped, leaves and all
dash(es) s & p
4 clove chopped garlic, separated
2 c white long grain rice

Steps:

  • 1. boil the chicken breasts in the water with 1/2 of the chopped garlic and all celery until fully cooked, drain and reserve the liquid/broth. Allow the chicken to cool. You can do this the night before if you want to.
  • 2. Add 4 cups of broth to a pan, add rice and bring to a boil, then turn down to a simmer, cover the pan. Simmer until the rice is cooked and tender.
  • 3. add 1/2 cup butter to large skillet add the onion, green pepper S&P, remaining garlic and start to saute.
  • 4. Shred the chicken breasts from the bone and chop into bite size pieces place in the large skillet with the veggies. (electric skillet works great for cooking and serving)
  • 5. Add remaining 1/2 cup butter and cooked rice to the chicken. You may want to add more broth if it is dry.
  • 6. Here is the easy method replacements - You may use instant rice which cuts down on the cooking time. (follow the box directions but use broth not water) Use a rotisserie chicken meat picked from the bones, 3 cans of chicken broth (or a large container) The butter adds such a delicious flavor I would keep that in the recipe.
  • 7. Gently stir and allow the flavors to mingle for about 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with parsley or thyme.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality rice: Long-grain rice, such as basmati or jasmine, cooks up fluffy and separate, making it ideal for company rice.
  • Rinse the rice before cooking: This removes the starch from the rice, which helps to prevent it from becoming sticky.
  • Use the right amount of water: The general rule of thumb is to use 1 1/2 cups of water for every cup of rice.
  • Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to low: This helps to ensure that the rice cooks evenly.
  • Cover the pot and cook the rice for the recommended amount of time: Do not lift the lid during cooking, as this can cause the rice to cook unevenly.
  • Once the rice is cooked, remove it from the heat and let it stand for 5 minutes before serving: This allows the rice to finish absorbing the water.
  • Fluff the rice with a fork before serving: This helps to separate the grains of rice.

Conclusion:

Company rice is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. By following the tips above, you can cook perfect company rice every time. Whether you are entertaining guests or simply cooking for your family, company rice is sure to be a hit.
