Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups uncooked long grain white rice
  • 3 cups water
  • 5 cups diced cooked chicken
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons chopped onion
  • 1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts
  • 1 1/2 cups sliced almonds
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 2 teaspoons ground white pepper
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 3 cups cornflakes cereal

Directions

  1. Combine rice and water in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  3. In a large bowl stir together the cooked rice, diced chicken, mayonnaise, yogurt, cream of mushroom soup, and chicken broth. Mix in the lemon juice, onion, water chestnuts, 1 cup of sliced almonds, and celery. Season with white pepper and salt. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish.
