Cut up veggies and saute them fast so that they carmelize a bit in either olive oil or butter, to crisp-tender. Add tomato sauce, or fresh juicy chopped tomatoes, or tomato juice, and cook fast till almost dry. Deglaze with white wine and a touch of brandy. Add soy sauce to taste. Set aside, scraping the pan well. (You can add black olives, too, either the boring comfort food kind, or kalmatas) Chop chicken breast into bitesize pieces and sitrfry till done in butter or olive oil (with onions if you wish) (with bacon bits or prosciutto if you wish) In a shallow casserole layer the rice, the veggies, the chicken, and slather the whole thing with grated swiss cheese. Broil till cheese is melted and starting to brown. |
