Whether you are in the mood for Mexican, Chinese, Southern, or something else entirely, you’ll find a new favorite rice skillet dinner here!
Last night I made Spicy Cheeseburger Rice Skillet, and it reminded me (again) how much I love, love skillet dinners! You just can’t beat your whole meal coming together in one pan, usually in about a half hour. As a die-hard carb lover, I especially enjoy rice skillets. A lot of times I’m happier with a bowl of rice than a bowl of pasta!
To celebrate my love of rice skillets, I put together this list of ten easy recipes for you. Whether you are in the mood for Mexican, Chinese, Southern, or something else entirely, I’m sure you’ll find a dinner idea that you can’t wait to try. Let’s see the recipes!
