This was really easy and pretty tasty! I would add more vegetables next time, maybe onions and red/yellow peppers, but overall really good for being a healthy option!

My husband & I loved this recipe! The only thing I found was that I had to simmer for 10 mins instead of 5 for the rice to be done. Very tasty!

This recipe is easy to make and quick and delicious. I used a full can of broth and just added a bit more rice and it still came out OK. I usually use more chicken than the recipes call for also to feed my whole family.

Based off the picture and the recipe, I guess I expected this to be delicious and was very disappointed. This was horrible! Like they say, you can't judge a book by the cover. I would not recommend it and will be removing it from my recipe box.

It was OK. It certainly had good flavor. My kids didn't like it and I think it's because of the tomatoes so I will eliminate them next time. The chicken was extremely tender and had tons of flavor thanks to cooking in Italian dressing.

This was a simple recipe, quite easy to make. It was very filling and tasted great. My husband who is a somewhat picky eater enjoyed this meal...without the tomatoes. Even without tomatoes though, it was delicious! I would definitely recommend this!

This was very simple to make. I added a sliced onion and used can tomatoes with green chilies instead of fresh tomatoes. When the directions say to use a large pan, use a LARGE pan. I made a mess out of my stove top because my pan was not big enough.
