CHICKEN AND RICE PRIMAVERA



Chicken and Rice Primavera image

This is a tasty skillet meal that is very quick to put together. You can substitute vegetables, if you like. I always use broccoli. I sometimes substitute the peas for a corn, carrot and asparagus mixture I find in the frozen food section.
