Barley, Chicken and Mushroom Bake

Submitted by Kiwi Kathy

"I found this recipe on the bake of a Pam's Barley packet. Sounds interesting and should make an easy winter meal. April 2013: Have made this recipe now and while it is quick and easy, does require the addition of salt and pepper to taste."
