Ben's Original™ Mushroom Microwave Rice 220g
1tbsp Sunflower Oil
2 Chicken Breasts
2 rashers of Streaky Bacon, chopped
1 White Onion, chopped
100g Button Mushrooms, chopped
1 Garlic Clove, crushed
1tbsp Plain Flour
300ml Chicken Stock
2tbsp Light Cream Cheese
Small handful of Fresh Chives, chopped

1
Place the chicken breasts between greaseproof paper and use a rolling pin to flatten each piece to an even thickness. Heat the oil in a casserole pan over a medium to high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5 minutes until browned on each side. Remove from the pan and aside on a plate.
2
Add the bacon to the pan and when beginning to crisp and release its fat, mix in the onion. Cook for 5-7 minutes until starting to soften, then add the flour and stir to coat. Add the mushrooms and garlic into the pan, fry for 3-4 minutes.
3
Return the chicken to the pan and add the chicken stock. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes, until the chicken is cooked. Cook the Ben's Original™ rice according to pack instructions.
4
Just before serving, stir in the cream cheese to the pan and stir fully mixed. Place the rice into bowls and top with a chicken breast and the creamy sauce. Sprinkle some chopped chives on top and enjoy!
