My kids ate this well. I told them it was like macaroni and cheese made with rice. I used precooked chicken and started with some sauted onions and garlic. I used cauliflower instead of broccoli.

    Excellent dish. I recommend chopping the chicken and adding a little milk to thin the sauce. Excellent creamy flavor.

    My DH really enjoyed this and broccoli is not one of his favorite vegetables! I used thin sliced chicken breast and the soup mixture was very thick so I added one can of milk. We had a very nice and creamy sauce to spoon over the chicken. Next time I will add more broccoli as it cooked down a lot. Served this with Scalloped Potatoes and Orange-Glazed Shredded Carrots (Reduced or Low-Fat) for a wonderful supper tonight!

    We liked this a lot! I have 2 young boys & they gobbled this up. This was quick & easy to make, which is always a plus for me. A couple minor changes I made - I cut the chicken into bite size pieces & then sauted it in the oil. I also added the rice to the chicken/broccoli/cheese mixture instead of serving it over the rice. I will definately be making this again!
