Cornish Game Hens and Rice Bake image

This recipe makes a nice dinner and is from The Pillsbury Family Kitchens' Cookbook. I use 1 can (10 3/4 ounces) chicken broth and enough water to make 2 cups (and heat it in microwave) in place of water and bouillon cubes. This recipe can also be used with quartered or cut up frying chicken. I have only made it with the cornish hens.

I added some chopped vegetables to the rice and it was a great way to get my kids to eat their vegetables.

I had some leftover chicken from a rotisserie chicken and decided to try this recipe. It was a great way to use up the leftovers and the rice was a delicious side dish.
