This was awesome! Quick, easy and tastey. I added mushrooms too. I will make this again for my family.

I sliced my chicken breasts making it easier and faster to cook. I also added some mushrooms. There are no leftovers!

This is a regular in our household. Even the 2 year old can't get enough!

Enjoyed the flavors, just not a fan of brown rice - neither was the fam. Maybe wild rice instead...

easy. The 13 year old who doesn't like brown ate it like wildfire.

Very good! A new favorite of mine, can't wait to make this again! The only thing I did differently was to cook the chicken in a little more dressing than called for and used 2 cups of spaghetti sauce. REALLY YUMMY!

A new family favorite! I love experimenting with recipes, changing them up to make them my own, but this one is perfect and will not be altered.

I really enjoyed this recipe! It was quick, easy and very tasty. Even the kids liked it, though zucchini is not their favorite vegetable. I used a little extra dressing and pasta sauce to make it "saucier" and it was perfect.
