This was a quick & easy supper for the kids on a weeknight. I made a few changes: For veggies I used diced fresh celery, small cans of corn & carrots. I followed other reviewer suggestions & substituted chicken broth for water & stirred in black pepper & ground sage. For the topping I used a generous amount of french onion topping around the edges & covered the chicken with cheese. It was so easy & not light on flavor at all! Will definitely make again.

I've done this several times in several ways. Doing it the way the recipe describes makes undercooked, incredibly bland, chewy, depressing food. However, if you cook the rice in advance, and cook the chicken in advance (preferably cubed small and mixed in with the rice and vegetables) it turns out much more flavorful. Sure it adds a few extra steps so it no longer is a quick after-work meal, but if you have the time to pack that extra TLC and flavor in, DO IT. I also cook the rice with some chicken stock and I use broccoli cheddar soup cans instead of the suggestion.

This is the best no prep meal. I love that you can literally throw everything in a casserole dish and an hour later you have dinner. awesome!

Here's what I did to make this dish pretty good: Cube the chicken and mix all of the ingredients (except for the cheese) together. The chicken cooks better this way. I also used chicken broth instead of water, I think it helped give it more flavor. Don't forget to season the chicken before you mix it with everything else! I also used Cream of Chicken with Herbs soup. This is definitely going to be made a lot at my house!

As is, this recipe is maybe a 3 star. It tends to come out under cooked. Some modifications I use are: tenderloin strips instead of a full breast. Lots of pepper garlic and other seasonings on top of chicken. Also I use 1 1/2 cups rice, 2 cups water, half a can of cream of cheddar soup, a splash of milk and shredded cheese in the rice mixture. I cook covered for 30 minutes then uncover and cook till done usually another half hour. With a little imagination this recipe is a good base and very easy to throw together.

YUM! This was my first dish as a young mom, new cook haha and it turned out flawless! Tips that really helped from the previous reviews was using the MINUTE rice to avoid rice still being hard after cook time......CHICKEN BROTH instead of water.......and a BUNCH of CHEESE on top! Easy easy I love it!
