"I found this in a 2003 book, The Big Book of Potluck by Maryana Vollstedt. I doubled the sour cream sauce because...well, I like the sauce.:)I also used half white rice and half wild rice because I love wild rice. I poached the chicken with some veggies and reserved the broth to use in the recipe after straining. Canned broth is great also. This is good as is, but I think it can also be used a a great start for a little creative experimentation with veggies and such."
