Chicken and rice is a quick and simple lunch or great mid-week dinner recipe, using staple ingredients, that is such a crowd pleaser! You can use leftover rice, and this makes a perfect leftover meal for the next day. A great way to consume bone broth, especially during the warmer months – using a homemade or a good quality store-bought one if you can.

Add extra vegetables if you like, it’s great with Asian greens!
