BBQ sauce, corn and chicken change some instant rice into an instantly delicious skillet dinner. Cheap, quick, tasty!
2 tablespoons oil
4 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves
2 cups water
3/4 cup barbecue sauce
1 cup corn kernels
2 cups instant white rice, uncooked
Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts, cover the skillet, and cook for 4 minutes. Remove the cover and turn the chicken over. Cover again and cook for 4 more minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (time will depend on thickness of the chicken). Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet, set aside and keep warm.
Add the water, barbecue sauce, and corn to the skillet. Bring to a boil then stir in the rice. Place the chicken on top of the rice. Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook for 5 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
Serve hot.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.

Quick and satisfying. I had rather thick chicken breast halves, so the cooking time for those was considerably more than 4 minutes per side. Just use your judgment so they don't become dry.
