Great recipe!! I made it pretty much as listed, only I left out the green onions (didn't have any) and used evaporated skim milk in place of the whipping cream. My kids LOVED it!! Thanks for sharing!! Think I will try it with scallops next time! This is a pretty versatile recipe....good with chicken I'll bet too!! Thanks! Definitely a KEEPER!!
