Chicken and Rice
"As budget allows, splurge and buy Rice-A-Roni long grain and wild rice to substitute for the white rice. It gives the dish a more "upscale" look. Frozen veggies can also be added, and any other type seasoning can be substituted for the onion soup mix."

YUM! I added a can of chicken broth! Great one pot QUICK meal! -
This was good! I was a little confused by 1 pkg (6 ounces) of onion soup mix (b/c of sodium count, MSG) so I only added 1 pkg of soup mix at 55 grams (2 oz) + 1 tsp of onion powder. Flavour was great! Also I am never sure if 3 ckn breasts means 1/2 breasts or whole. I did 3 (1/2's) w/ another filet or two I had frozen. Another note, I was paranoid about the amount of liquid b/c I used a ready made mushroom soup instead of a can of cr. of mush and only 1/2 cup of water. And SINCE I was being paranoid, I stirred the pot before I added the chicken. SO, my brown rice was uncooked at the end. Regardless, this was easy and was comforting. Thanks for your recipe, I am going to try again w/ what I have learned and make it perfect next time!! -
This was a great, easy one-dish meal. I love mains with a low level of prep work and this was perfect and tasty. I skipped the french onions and forgot the rosemary, but this is full of enough flavour that these things weren't missed. Also, instead of a cup of brown rice and a cup of white, I used a cup and a third of white rice and half a cup of brown/wild rice mix. Yum!

Nice recipe to put together on a busy night or weekend. I didnt have enough white rice for one cup so added more brown. Used 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts and dried rosemary. The rice was in a nice gravy and when mixed was very creamy and nicely flavored and the chicken breast was moist and tender. Enjoyed the french fried onions sprinkled on top for a little zip. The only problem is I dont think the amount of ingredients would feed 4-6 people unless small portions were served and another main course was available.
