LOADED MEXICALI CHICKEN



Loaded Mexicali Chicken image

Subscribed to one of those recipe card subscriptions when we first got married--back in 1978. This recipe has been a family favorite for years now. We whip up a batch of long-grain brown rice and use the sauce from the chicken for a "gravy" (Mexican rice!). Leftovers are even BETTER than the first-runs!

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 meal, 5-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

10 pieces chicken (drums & thighs)
