    I love this recipe. I did it a little differently. I made brown rice in a rice cooker and added two chicken bullion cubes. While the rice cooked I cooked the chicken in the italian dressing added a bullion cube and then the broccoli, onion, and tomatoes. Then I added the rice and placed the cheese - 11/10/10

    AMAZING! This is my absolute favorite recipe...it is so good, flavorful and makes such a big portion. I also added some minced garlic to it because my husband and I love garlic and it was great. Also used brown rice and it turned out super. Will be making this often! - 12/6/09
