Pablano Chicken and Rice

Here is a super quick and really tasty dinner to enjoy. I usually just serve it as the main dish, no sides, but if you wanted to add something else, go for it! Maybe a mexican inspired salad...

2 pablano peppers

1 large onion, chopped

2 celery ribs, sliced

2 cubs veggie broth

3/4 cups uncooked rice

1/2 tsp turmeric

1 pkg veggie delight chicken (10 oz I think), cubed

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 tsp cumin

1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

salt/pepper to taste

1. Remove stems from peppers. Cut into thin strips lengthwise.

2. Saute onions, peppers and celery until slightly browned.

3. Stir in broth, rice and turmeric. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes.

4. Saute veggie chicken in a pan with olive oil and cumin until browned.

5. Add chicken to rice mixture after the 15 minutes is up. Stir in the pepper flakes and cheddar cheese. Cook another 5 - 10 minutes.
