Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Stir together water, rice, tomatoes, Velveeta, onion, and 1 tsp of Italian seasoning. Pour into a greased 9"x13" baking dish. Top with chicken, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and remaining seasoning. Bakeat 375F for 45-50 mins or until chicken is tender. Let stand for 5 mins and serve.
  2. My notes: Convenient and tasty! I used chicken pieces from a whole chicken. I made it up the night before and left it in the fridge until I got home from work. For next time: Add more rice, more tomatoes (just to make it go further), and it would still be good with less Velveeta (to make it less expensive).
