Ingredients:

Serving

10 pieces chicken ( drums & thighs)
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp butter
2 cups long grain brown rice
4 cups water
2 cups salsa or 2 cups picante sauce
1/2 cup water
1 tsp garlic powder (or several cloves minced)
1 tbsp dried onion flakes
1 tbsp parsley
2 tsp basil
2 tsp oregano
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese (or monterey jack)

Directions:

In a hot pan, melt butter and oil; immediately brown chicken on all sides (about 15 minutes total).
Put rice and water into a covered large casserole pan-microwave for about 45 minutes until soft and plump-check your owner's manual. My microwave has rice cycle.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Mix sauce ingredients-EXCEPT cheese.
Place chicken in a 13x9-inch pan or a casserole dish, pour sauce over the chicken, then sprinkle with cheese; cover lightly with foil.
Bake chicken for 35-40 minutes; remove foil, continue baking for 5-10 minutes.
Serve with rice and use chicken sauce for a gravy.
