Elevate your stew with Chicken Helper® mix, featuring tender chicken, creamy peanut butter, and flavorful tomatoes.
Ingredients:
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 4)
  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ Chicken Helper™ jambalaya
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 1/2 cups hot water
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes with onion and pepper, undrained
  • 1/2 lb sliced fully cooked Polish or kielbasa sausage, if desired
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter
Instructions:
  • Slice chicken into thin strips, approximately 2x1/4 inch in size. In a 3- to 4-quart saucepan, combine chicken with the chicken seasoning from the jambalaya mix, ensuring the chicken is well coated. Add oil and mix thoroughly. (For optimal results, use a nonstick saucepan.)
  • Sear chicken over medium-high heat for 5 minutes until dark brown, then flip and cook for another 3 minutes. Add hot water, sauce mix, uncooked rice, tomatoes, and sausage. Bring to a boil, then simmer covered for 25 minutes until rice is tender, stirring occasionally.
  • Add creamy peanut butter to the mixture and continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes until it thickens. Cover the dish and allow it to sit for about 5 minutes until most of the liquid is absorbed.
