Expert Tips

If fresh chicken breast tenders are not available, frozen (thawed) chicken tenders (not breaded) may be used. Or substitute boneless, skinless chicken breast halves that have been cut lengthwise into thirds.

Leftover ham from a holiday meal can be used in this recipe. Slice it thin, and cut enough strips to cover the rice.

A salad of mixed greens or fresh arugula and sliced red pears complete this easy chicken casserole meal.

This recipe is wrong, do not add 4 cups of water! 2 cups is plenty. I questioned it before I added 4 cups but did it anyway. I cooked the dish for almost 2 hrs and the rice and chicken was still swimming in water. Next time, if I choose to try it again, I will add 2 cups of water.
