2 to 3 lbs. chicken (skinless, boneless)
2 c. chicken broth
2 celery sticks, sliced
2 carrots, sliced
1 lg. onion, diced
1 can mushroom pieces
1 c. cooked rice
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. parsley
1 tsp. pepper

Bring spice and broth to boil. Reduce to a simmer, add chicken, onion, carrots, celery. Cook 15 minutes, add rice, cook for another 15 minutes. (The longer it stands the thicker stew will become as rice expands). Add mushrooms before serving.
