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!
