1. 1

   WARNING!

2. 2

   There is nothing fancy about this recipe!

3. 3

   It is not pretty, it is comfy.

4. 4

   If it were clothes it would be sweat pants.

5. 5

   It is delicious, creamy, simple and filling.

6. 6

   Plus it uses leftovers and who doesnt love cleaning out the leftovers?

7. 7

   Get out your leftover chicken, any flavor, any kind!

8. 8

   For mine, I used the remains of a rotisserie chicken.

9. 9

   I called for a pound, but really any amount will do.

10. 10

    If you dont have any leftover chicken and still want to make this, use canned!

11. 11

    Itll be fine!

12. 12

    I promise (wink).

13. 13

    Cut the chicken into bite size (or smaller) pieces.

14. 14

    Put in a microwave safe bowl and set aside.

15. 15

    Put cream of chicken soup in a medium/large-ish pot, add water and heat to a boil.

16. 16

    When soup/water mixture is boiling, add rice, drop heat to a low simmer (if your stove has numbers, I set mine to between 1 and 2) and cover.

17. 17

    Set your timer for ten minutes and LEAVE IT ALONE!

18. 18

    Do not lift the lid!

19. 19

    If you have the stove set low enough, this will not stick and will be just fine!

20. 20

    I promise!

21. 21

    While you wait for the rice to cook, microwave your chicken for 30 seconds at a time (stirring between intervals) until just hot.

22. 22

    Dont dry it out.

23. 23

    When your rice is done, stir in the warmed chicken, season liberally with salt and pepper and serve!

24. 24

    I generally pair this with a steamed vegetable or salad and call it done.

25. 25

    Quick, easy and delicious.
