Italian Dressing Chicken

A fellow camp director brought this meal in for lunch, and I commented on how delicious it smelled, so she let me taste it and gave me the recipe! I'm not entirely sure where she got the recipe from, but it's easy, yummy, and healthy if you use low fat ingredients and brown rice instead of white (which I did not do!)

Ingredients: A pack of boneless, skinless, chicken breasts, minced garlic (you can use chopped too), rice, Italian dressing (I used fat free), Swiss cheese.

Cut the chicken breasts up into cubes, let them cook in a pan for 5 minutes or so.

Add in the entire bottle of Italian dressing (I probably could have gotten away with using 3/4 of the bottle) and some garlic. I just used a little bit of garlic. The amount you use is a matter of preference!

Cook the chicken covered on medium heat for about 25-30 minutes. Stir occasionally.

At the very end, top with Swiss cheese and let melt for about a minute. (I took Jeff's portion out before I did this. He HATES Swiss cheese!) I put 5 slices on, which was probably too much, especially with some of the chicken already out of the pan, but I love Swiss cheese! Again, the amount you use is personal preference!


Serve over rice and you're done! Jeff and I absolutely loved this dish and ate it really fast! We had some leftover, and it's just as good the following day for lunch!
