I loved this recipe. It did not have too much of anything. My boyfriend especially loved it. I would recommend this. I did put some peas and carrots not only for color but, I did not have to use a separate dish for vegetables.

I was looking for a new one dish chicken meal because I was tired of everything I usually do with chicken and I am so glad I tried this one. I did not have any garlic powder so I used 1/2 teaspoon of minced garlic instead. I also used yellow (saffron) rice because I did not have enough white rice. I was so thrilled with the results and was surprised at how you could taste all of the individual ingredients so well. I made about half again the amount of topping listed and I loved the result. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!

This was too rich and heavy for me. If you like mac and cheese, you'll probably like this, but I don't.

We have been making this for years. My kids request it all the time. It is high in fat, so I substitute FF milk, red. fat cheese, FF sour cream, and my original recipe that I use calls for 1/2 c, butter, divided, not 3/4 c. Which would be way too much. We have also used brown rice before which is yummy too.

Absolutely delicious! I used brown rice instead of white and my 3-year-old didn't even notice! I also used cheddar cheese instead of velvetta. I added a veggie mix for color and variety.

This was a very yummy casserole! My husband and kids loved it. I made a few small changes--added cooked broccoli, used half velveeta and half shredded cheddar cheese. Instead of mixing the cracker crumbs with butter, I sprinkled the crumbs over the dish and drizzled 1/4 c. melted butter over them. Half a cup seemed a bit excessive--the topping still browned nicely and added a great flavor. It did brown quickly, so I covered the dish with foil for about half the baking time. I also added basil and oregano to the sauce, since I didn't have any buillion cubes and wanted some extra flavor. I'll certainly make this one again, thanks!!

Great recipe! I hate boiled rice, but the sauce gave it so much flavor. The only negative thing is that when this dish cools it gets very thick. I think it tastes even better reheated.

This recipe was great, everyone loved it! Be sure to pay close attention, I accidentally added uncooked rice, but other than that, it was great!

This is really good! My family really loved it and I had enough left over to put in bowls to freeze for my husband when he is working away from home! Try it!

Everyone loved this dinner. I had to change quite a bit though because of the calories and the fat. I actually screwed this up and used macaroni instead by accident..added fresh garlic. Omitted the crackers and the other half cup of butter. Used 1 1/2 cups reduced fat milk and 1 cup reduced fat sour cream. Also substituted reduced fat cheddar instead of velveta. Very good and easy to make...will definately be making this again.

I liked this very much!! It was a little much in the fat and calorie dept. So.... I chaged it a little, I used brown rice 1% milk low fat sour cream and it was still very good. Next time I am going to add peas carotts. But I did think it was very good.

Very good. I used cheddar instead of Velveeta, added some minced garlic, frozen peas and onion. I mixed it all together instead of layering and topped with cheddar and buttered bread crumbs. Will make again.

This was okay. It got too dry at the end, not sauce-like at all. I put some peas in it, that made it taste better, but the consistency was not good.

This was awesome! My husband raved over it. I would change nothing...it is perfect as is. The only caveat is it is probably really fattening. It was soo filling! This is for one of those days you could care less about fat grams!

This was just ok in my opinion. It is definitely creamy, although I would've preferred more bulk in the form of added rice. It just seemed like it needed "something." I will probably keep looking for other chicken casserole recipes.

This was a really yummy recipe, but had a little too much fat for me! I made it more low fat by using less butter, 1% milk, and instead of Velveeta I used a mixture of mozzarella and cheddar cheese. I took some other's advice and added some broccli to make it a complete meal . Instead of the butter and crackers, I simply sprinkled some breadcrumbs on top of everything. YUM!!
