I found that when I made this, the rice completely turned to mush. I really wanted to like this, but I wasn't that crazy about it. Maybe cooking it for less time would do the trick, but I got smooshy, unappetizing rice after 6 hours and we tossed out the leftovers. -
This is a GREAT recipe... I doubled the recipe and made it for a company Christmas potluck, and it was a HUGE hit. Cooked it on high for about 4 hours, and it smelled wonderful all morning long. Everyone commented on how good this tasted. What I really liked about this was the simplicity- a one-pot meal that honestly cooks itself. Other than the preperation, no muss, no fuss. When I doubled the reciope, I substituted a half cup of sour cream for about a half cup of the water- I was thinking that any more would have been too soupy, but now I think I could have increased the sour cream even a little more, because it did add a nice creaminess and flavor. Other than that, I would not change a thing. This was the first RecipeZaar recipe that I have ever tried, and everyone commented on how good it was. Thank you soooo much! -
I made this dish for company, and it was a hit. I thought it looked a little dry so added 8-10 ounces of sour cream which made it nice and creamy. Delicious and easy.

The first time I made this it was a miserable failure, but I tried again. 6-8 hours is WAY too long. Like the other reviewer said, 4 hours on high is perfect. It is actually unbelievably great, and is one of my absolute favorite meals. I like to sub milk for some of the water and add more broccoli and chicken. It's SO GOOD. Try it, you'll like it!
