A camping recipe from Deb. This is an easy make-ahead recipe and a great warm-you-through meal.
Prep Time: 1 hour
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour, 30 minutes
Ingredients:
- chicken, pre-cooked
- celery, chopped
- onion, chopped
- long grain rice
- chicken broth
- liquid smoke
- butter
Preparation:
The night before: cook and debone your chicken, if you're using a whole chicken, otherwise cook chicken breasts or use canned chicken. Also saute the celery and onion in butter. Adjust quantities accordingly. Put all in an air tight container and refrigerate for the trip.
At the campground: follow directions for cooking long grain rice. For every cup of rice use two cans of broth or roughly two cups of chicken stock from the night before. Add the onion, celery, and chicken at this time. This allows the chilled ingredients to warm through while the rice cooks. Here's the secret ingredient: add a couple drops of liquid smoke. More, if your making more rice. Use about two drops per cup of rice, and adjust to taste. You don't want the liquid smoke to overpower everything. Once the rice is done, that's it, you're finished.
