"Perfect dish for company, your family or a covered-dish supper. It can be assembled several hours before dinner and popped into the oven about an hour before serving time. An easy one-dish meal you'll serve time and again. For a change, you can substitute shrimp for the chicken or sausage."

  1. This was very good Beachgirl.I did have to cook it a little longer than you recommended, but that could be because I cut the recipe in half and used chicken stock instead of the water and granules. It seemed to take longer for the rice to cook. Also left out the kielbasa, just used 4 bonless skinless chicken breasts. Onions and garlic are always good together but we also loved the peppers, curry and paprika. (I did double the curry)And we added 1 teaspoon of the red pepper flakes. All in all a good recipe, we will make again. Even cutting it in half, it was a lot, I put half in the freezer, thanks for sharing.
