What You'll Need

  • 2 cup uncooked instant rice
  • 2 (10-ounce) cans diced tomatoes and green chilies, undrained

  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 pound chicken legs and thighs, skinned
  • Chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish

What to Do

  1. Combine all ingredients except chicken; pour mixture into a greased microwave-safe 9- x 13-inch baking dish. Arrange chicken over rice mixture, and cover loosely with wax paper.
     
  2. Microwave, covered, at HIGH 15 minutes. Turn chicken pieces over. Microwave, uncovered, at HIGH 14 minutes or until chicken is done.
     

Notes

This recipe was tested in an 1100-watt microwave oven. If time is not an issue, this casserole can easily be baked in a conventional oven, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes. Either way you cook it up, it's mighty tasty.
