     I added green chilies and a little extra garlic ~ Yum - 7/3/08

     This was great! Since I didn't have cooked chicken, I thawed frozen chicken breasts, put them in a baking dish with the tomato products and baked, covered, in the oven. While the chicken was baking, I made the rice. Then I added the rice to the pan. Everyone in the family loved it! Thanks! - 1/8/08

     I followed someone's advice about black beans and corn and rotell and it was really filling. I used a whole wheat wrap the second day it was really good. I kept the rice separate so I could freeze the leftovers and even have it on my baked potato. - 4/10/11

     Very good! I make something very similar to this but use a can of Rotel instead of the tomatoes & peppers, puree and onions, and substitute thyme and cumin for the chili. I also add a can of black beans and a cup of frozen corn. - 9/14/10

     You can't beat this as a fast nutritious week day meal. Soooo easy. I did add some salt. I mixed brown rice with white rice... just because I I had a bit of brown to use up.. it worked. - 8/17/08

     I prefer to make it pilaf style, cooking the rice in broth with precooked chicken, several veggies, & plenty of cumin & turmeric. (Click on my name if you'd like to try an alternative recipe.) - 7/7/08

     We just tried this recipe and my husband really liked it. I added 1/2 cup of red onion, yellow pepper, and red pepper, just for some extra flavor...turned out great. - 6/8/08

     When we make Arroz con Pollo, we always add sliced green olives. Gives it a tang that isn't spicy hot. - 3/6/19
