We came up with this with some leftover food from a campaign I had worked on. I had over-bought for what I was making & had several bags left over in the freezer – so we decided to make a delicious dinner with it.

Beyond being easy – I really do love the frozen chicken in the bag because it is so convenient and most times there are no preservatives. (I was not compensated for this post in any way) You know how I feel about preservatives & how hard I try to eliminate them whenever possible.
It is just so much easier to have the food already prepped on those super busy nights when we are running until 7-8pm and then have to come home and make dinner.
Here are some commonly asked questions
Where can I find the pre-cooked chicken or beef?
Check your freezer aisle in your local market. There are many varieties to choose from there. Some require cooking but look for the ones that are ready to eat with little prep work.
Can I serve this with something other than white rice?
Absolutely. This is also really delicious with brown rice or quinoa.
