Creamy Chicken and Cheddar Rice

We love this recipe. I've made it many times. Usually add extra cheese, but the rest is perfect! I want to try it with already cooked long grain rice as someone else suggested!

The only reason I gave this four instead of five stars is that I didn't follow the exact recipe (so I'm leaving room to add one more star in case the original recipe is even better than what I made)! I made a few substitutions based on things I had in the kitchen. Used a can of drained chicken and as it was already cooked, added it together with the soup and milk in the beginning. I used garlic powder (3/4 tsp) to the whole mixture and that added tons of flavor to the dish! I also added half a soup can of water because I thought there might not have been enough liquid for the rice, and I did have to cook a bit longer than the recommended 5 minutes for the rice to be done. I didn't have any cheese so that was omitted, but it was still very yummy. After it was done cooking, I let it sit for a few minutes to let the sauce thicken up a bit and it was fabulous! I liked the texture of the canned chicken (shredded) and loved that it saved me time. I did however drain and rinse the chi

Very good! made it with the frozen Artic Garden veggies (brocolli, caulifower, carrots, greenbeans)added some celery as well. Great recipe.. just wanted more variety with the veggies.

Loved it! Was very good. As others said the only problem I had was the rice was not done in the 5 minutes like the recipe said, more like 12. But otherwise great and just finished having some leftovers of it for lunch and good if not better! Will add to our regular rotation!

delicious recipe, the only problem i had with it is that the rice wasn't quite done even on medium heat, and the broccoli was still a bit too crisp. I would try a lower heat setting next time for the rice and maybe partially cook the broccoli in the microwave with some water next time.

I used frozen broccoli. This was a hit at my dinner table! We will make this again soon!

I repalced the instant rice with rice i already had cooked. (we're not an instant rice family!!!) My daughter and boyfriend loved it. My son is a little more picky so we'll try another dish for him later. We loved it.

Turned out great! I used frozen broccoli, minced onions and a little extra cheese. It will definitely be making a dinner appearance again soon!

I added mushrooms and frozen broccoli like some other people did and it was great. I also added some minced onion and more garlic while the chicken cooked. I hate broccoli but didn't mind it in this recipe. My fiance loved it!

So easy and yummy! I made it with non-instant rice and added a cup of chicken broth so it would'nt dry out.
