Another super easy healthy dinner recipe – I am hooked on these oven baked rice and chicken recipes!
One dish to clean, delicious creamy rice and a healthy, balanced meal all in one.
I’ve been putting veggies in with all my oven baked rice and chicken recipes which works great and I usually serve them with leafy greens to plump up the veggie quota even more.
You and your family will love this easy and delicious healthy dinner (and whoever’s on clean up duty will love it even more!).
*Side note – these oven baked rice recipes are awesome for kiddies! My 2 year old loves the rice and veggies so I just shred a little of the chicken and add some extra coconut cream.
I would love to see your creation if you make this recipe so make sure you tag me on insta or facebook @qulu.co.
Enjoy!
