- Most of the time I broil or fry bacon, but for this recipe I
suggest using the microwave. It's quick and easy, unlike the rest
of this meal. - Either way you decide to cook it, make sure you can keep the
grease that comes off for later (sounds gross, but trust me) - When the bacon is done, crumble it in to small pieces and set
aside
Rice
- There are several ways to cook rice. We use a rice cooker,
which takes longer but we think is better. If you use a rice
cooker, you'll want to start it after the bacon is done so it will
be done in time. Just keep it warm if it finishes early - If you use the microwave or stove, follow the directions on the
rice. It will take about 20 - 25 minutes, so you should start it
after the chicken is browned.
Chicken
- In a medium or large frying pan, use the bacon grease to brown
the chicken (medium-high heat) on all sides (takes about 15-20
minutes) - After the chicken is browned, get rid of that nasty bacon
grease. Just spoon it out and dispose - Now add the soup and garlic. You can either grind the garlic up
somehow or just break it into as small of pieces as you want. - Cover and cook for about 15 - 20 minutes, stirring
occasionaly - Uncover and add sliced onion. Cook for another 15 - 20 minutes
or until chicken is no longer pink, stirring occasionaly

This is my grandmother's recipe, I really like it. If she cooks it
the goodness factor is a 5, but I have only prepared it once so its
a 4 at my house. The dish is meant to serve as many people as there
are pieces of chicken, so you can adjust accordingly. Willow and
myself nearly finished 1 1/2 cups of rice with 5 (relatively
smaller) pieces of chicken, but we were really really stuffed, so I
don't reccomend doing it. Hope you like it, "mailto:comments@duelingmonkeys.com">let us know of any
suggestions you have.
