Marie Wallace's Baked Chicken Breasts Over Brown Rice

from the Dark Shadows Celebrity Cookbook

Marie Wallace's recipes in the Dark Shadows Celebrity Cookbook are always interesting and worth trying.  This one, Baked Chicken Breasts Over Brown Rice, is simple and quite healthy as well as being very tasty.  Brown rice is prepared with chicken broth and then tossed with a mixture of chopped scallions, garlic, and parsley.  Meanwhile, boneless and skinless chicken breasts have been sauteed in olive oil until golden brown and placed on the rice in a baking dish.  White wine is added and the chicken and rice bake for a half hour.  The finished dish gives you very tender and moist chicken and some very zesty and aromatic rice.  Simple to make and great for dinner served with steamed broccoli.  I always like Marie's enthusiasm for everything she does and her cooking reflects her vibrant and generous personality as much as her acting, writing, and photography, so it's always a pleasure to be following her suggestions in the kitchen.  You'll enjoy this very much.
