Since everything is cooked in the same skillet, cleanup is a snap!

Even the children loved this recipe. The rice was very tasty with the addition of the almonds. I will make this again.

Kind of bland with no taste

I wasn't sure when I cooked this for dinner and then served it to my guest and then didn't eat it. But having it for lunch the next day I realized that it was really good, the only thing I'd do next time is brown the chicken a bit more

Made this with Italian Dressing and fusili pasta because I'm a picky eater. It was so simple and easy! Loved the great flavors and will definitely make again.

Simply delicious. Used Kraft Signature Greek with Feta & Oregano dressing. Didn't have the green beans,used frozen peas. Toasted the almonds. Will make this again.

Made this last night for mom & I. I used chicken breasts & kraft fig balsalmic vinigrette dressing because I had them already. The rice was amazing ( I toasted the almonds for extra flavour). Chicken was very moist. An easy dish to prepare & clean up. Mom says I should make this again... for her! lol

This was a fantastic quick meal that was enjoyed by entire family. My 7 year old daughter even ate the green beans and now asks for me to cook them!!

I used chicken breasts and did not use minute rice, cooked the rice first and added peas and celery to it (like a pilaf) really good.

This is a simple and very delicious meal. I made it for my friend and I, and added fresh shredded parmesean cheese just before serving, it made just perfect! Excellent!
