Bring mixture up to a boil and add the chicken to sauce and let simmer with cover on for 15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked thouroughly and the sauce has reduced by half.
BROWN RICE:
- 1 Cup of Chicken Stock

- 1 Cup Rice
TO SERVE:
Transfer chicken breast to a plate, spoon some rice along the side and pour the sauce over top of both. Pair with your favorite vegetables (tonight we are having sauteed baby carrots). ENJOY!!
HELPFUL TIPS:
- Have flour nearby in case you want to thicken the sauce. Dissolve it in cold water before adding it to the hot liquid to avoid clumping.
- To add Spiciness to the sauce you can add 1 TSP of red pepper flakes.
