This creamy parmesan chicken and rice has become a staple in my household. It is the perfect week night dinner because it is quick, easy, delicious, and can be adjusted to either feed a large crowd or just a single person. Plus, leftovers are just as good the next day. You do not need very many ingredients and you might already have most of them on hand! I like to serve the dish along side a green vegetable such as broccoli, asparagus, or Brussels sprouts, but it also would be really good if you mixed the veggies right into it.
