     Very good!! The only thing I did different was cut the chicken in chunks and put it over the rice and used cream of chicken soup (don't like mushrooms). I will make this again. Thanks Steve!! - 7/31/09

     My boyfriend really enjoyed it while I thought it was just ok. We'll make it again as it was super easy, but I'll play with it a bit to give it more of a kick. - 8/25/09
