"What more could you ask for- Light,easy, great tasting and a all-in-one dish meal! My entire family loves this recipe. It was passed to me by my Mom. The rice has such a wonderful flavor that I sometimes adjust recipe and make more rice. I also like to marinate the chicken in some italian dressing ahead of time. It really makes a difference. It adds extra flavor to the chicken."

I've had this recipe for nearly 20 years and it is great. The Italian salad dressing gives it a great zing. Try it with different types of frozen vegetables. Thanks for posting!
