I thought it turned out wonderful. I do not know where the comments on dried chicken came from. I have always added a couple tbls. of olive oil to my rice. Maybe this helps keep the chicken moist but my chicken came out very moist. I have made it twice so far and both times have been a success.

just made this recipe for the 2nd time. the first time, it was a little dry but we really liked it. this time we decided to increase the amount of cream cheese and serve the rice on the side (instead of inside the chicken breast). it was a hit!

This dish was messy, dry and the end result was a huge disappointment. I would not recommend this recipe.

a little hard to make on the first try, but they turned out good. I might add some cheese or some sort of sauce at the end because they were slightly dry.

Family didn't like. It was fun to make but time consuming. Kids enjoyed smashing the crackers. The flavors were different. I liked the salty crackers with the chicken though. I can see how some would like it.

Ok, ignore my other comment on this recipe. I accidentally left it here, but it was supposed to be for another recipe. I'm actually making this one tonight, so we'll see how it goes.
