I found this recipe several years ago while looking for something unusual but simple I could prepare for company. I could prepare for company. It's a dish that I've served many times since then—with a salad and rolls, it makes a complete meal. My husband and I both grew up in the country. We're living in a suburb of a big city now, but we hope to move to a rural area. Meanwhile, two small children, home improvement projects, sewing and needlework keep me busy.

Very tasty. I only dotted 1 Tblsp of butter in the rice and 2 1/2 Tblsp of butter on the asparagus after reading the reviews about too much butter. These amounts worked fine. Only downside was that my wild rice came out crunchy. Will try par boiling the wild rice next time.

Overall this recipe was really good. I sort of guessed on the rice and bought a box of uncle Ben's, it wasn't exactly a cup and I should adjusted the chicken broth. I felt like there was too much butter also. I added some jarred garlic to the chicken broth, thought it was a tasty addition. Will use more asparagus next time.

I didn't measure the onion soup and just sprinkled over the chicken it was just a little bit salty (my fault) overall very good recipe.

I made this one time when my niece and nephew were visiting. The 6 year old told me it was "really tasty". Not a bad complement!

I'm guessing it should be 1/4 cup butter!

I think 14 cups of melted butter is a misprint. Hopefully! Can anyone correct this?
