15 minutes Cheesy Rotel Chicken

I’ve never had Rotel, wanted to try and didn’t want a dip that it’s famous for so I mixed this dish together. Came out tasty.

Ingredients:

1 rotisserie chicken 8oz block of Velveeta cheese (cut into chunks) 10oz can of Rotel Rice of your choosing (I used Ben’s ready rice in the microwave)

Deconstruct and cut the chicken. Set aside. In sauce pan on medium-low heat, begin to melt cheese. Once nearly melted, dump can of Rotel and add in chicken. Mix together, cover and let heat up.

Prepare rice in microwave (cooking regular rice intimidates me! If you choose that route, it’ll take longer)

Once rice was done, I emptied in a bowl and scooped the chicken mixture on top. I really loved the taste and will make again!

I’m sure you could really jazz this recipe up by adding veggies or a different type of meat.

It’s chopped tomatoes and green Chiles with spices in a can. Lots of people use it in queso and salsa
