Ingredients

1 cup rice, cooked to package directions
1 1/2 pound chicken tenderloins, or 1 to 2 chicken breasts
1 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
3 green peppers, sliced into strips
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cans diced tomatoes, preferably garlic and onion flavored
1 package mushrooms, chopped
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon parsley
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Cook rice according to package directions. Set aside.
In a large coated saute pan, add the chicken tenderloins. Cook for a few minutes on each side, enough to sear each side but not cook completely through.
In a different saute pan, add the olive oil, green peppers, and onion, and cook until tender.
In the chicken pan, add the peppers and onion. Also add the diced tomatoes, mushrooms, and spices. Cook on medium heat, covered, until cooked through and all ingredients are tender (about 10 to 15 minutes).
Serve chicken mixture over rice.
