In the mood for a Mexican inspired meal? In less than 20 minutes, you can serve up this easy, hearty Chicken, Vegetable & Rice Enchilada Skillet!

Chicken, Vegetable and Rice Enchilada Skillet in the pan with 4 white bowls stacked to the sideOne of my least favorite foods to cook is traditional rice. I pretty much stink at it. For some reason I have a flaw that does not allow me to get the rice fully cooked. So I love finding short cuts to still allow me to include rice in my meals without the hassle of preparing it the slow way.

It’s made with my new rice secret weapon – UNCLE BEN’S® READY RICE®. These little pouches give me delicious, fluffy rice in 90 seconds! 90 seconds y’all! And with the wide variety of flavors they have available, you’ll have no problems finding the perfect rice to compliment your meal!

Plus, using the READY RICE® allows it to all be made in just the one skillet which makes clean up a snap!
