Miracle Dish or 3 Qt. Casserole Microwave Recipes

Miracle Microwave Chicken:

3lb whole chicken
1 cup long grain rice
1/2 cup water
seasonings to taste (I use PH miracle rice and miracle chicken blends)

*place rice in bottom of Miracle Dish casserole and add water and seasoning, rinse chicken and remove any neck/organs inside.  Place whole chicken on top of rice mixture and add seasoning to taste.  Cover and cook in microwave for 30 minutes. (check after 25 min--microwaves vary from 28min to 35 min cook times)

Spice it Up Ideas:
--use fresh lemons ---squeeze all over chicken and place rinds inside chicken cavity for aromatic flavor
--lemon garlic is one of my favorite whole chicken with rice recipes
--use cummin and curry and coconut milk to add a Thai flavor
--add barbeque sauce over chicken during last 5 min of cook time
--add frozen normandy blend vegetables around chicken during last 10 min of cook time
--add fresh or canned mushrooms and mushroom soup during last 10 min of cook time
--add diced tomatoes with green chilis, frozen corn and taco seasoning for a mexican twist
--use rice side dish boxes with the seasonings already in it for fast, easy meals
--use whole chicken or just breasts or peices --what ever you have on hand
--can use frozen chicken straight into the dish --just add extra cooking time--make sure frozen whole chicken does not have an organ/neck meat pack inside
--can use dish in oven for all chicken recipes--just add up to 15 min cooking time
