1. Just use water, or water and stock cubes.
2. A can of whole plum tomatoes chopped up with some olive oil sliced up green pepper, onion, some jalapeno if you want a little spice or red pepper flakes. Kinda like a chicken Cacciatore (italian)
3. This recipe will hit the spot. 1(6.8 ounce) spanish-style rice mix. 1TB butter,2 cups hot water, 1 skinless boneless chicken breast half- cut into cubes,1 cup salsa, 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers. In a large skillet over medium heat prepare rice according to package directions. using the butter to brown the vermicelli and rice to golden brown. add the water,chicken, salsa and tomatoes and bring to a boil. cover skillet, reduce heat and let simmer for 25 to 30 min. or until liquid is absorbed.
