Ingredients:
1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
1 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup canola oil
1 cup uncooked long grain white rice
1 can (28 ounces) stewed tomatoes
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon chicken bouillon granules
3/4 teaspoon salt-free herb and spice seasoning
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 medium green peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 can (8 ounces) mushroom stems and pieces, drained
1 can (8 ounces) sliced water chestnuts, drained
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
Directions:
1. In a large Dutch oven, saute chicken and onion in oil until chicken is no longer pink. Add rice; cook and stir for 1 minute.
