I ended up not making this recipe at all, sort of, but I'm rating it high for the inspiration. I live in Peru, and there aren't flavored rice mixes available here, so I made regular rice in my rice cooker with garlic and chicken bouillon cubes. I only had 1 cup of sour cream, but I did have turkey gravy mix.. so I made a cup of turkey gravy and mixed that with the sour cream. I wanted to make it a one dish meal, so I stirred in some cooked peas and carrots. I also didn't have chow mein noodles, but I did have french fried string potatoes that I put on top. I was really surprised when my kids loved it! Thanks for giving me a great basic recipe to work with. :)

I know a lot of people are discouraged by the amount of 'pre-cooking' that takes place in this recipe, but I have to say I really appreciate finding a recipe that doesn't use canned chicken and a can of cream of something soup. I live in Peru, and convenience items like canned food are difficult, sometimes impossible, to find. So thanks for a recipe that let me make everything from scratch!

I love this recipe - there's so much you can do to change it up! Stir in raisins, any kind of nut, add butterscotch or peanut butter chips - so many variations. I've been making it a few years now, and it never fails me.
