This is an excellent recipe! I often season and brown some chicken tenders to place on top of the rice.

I altered the recipe for my personal health concerns. I used olive oil instead of butter. I used parboiled/minute brown rice, I decreased the oven time to about 25 ish minutes and added flax seed. I served it with canned beans to make sure I got enough complete protein. I am on my way out now to buy fresh celery and mushrooms so I can this for dinner. Thnx for posting.

I have been making this dish for several years now, and it is not only delicious, but convenient, as it bakes at the same time and oven temp as many of my chicken recipes. A household favorite.

I loved this! I made it with brown rice and dry minced onion and it tastes like a wild rice medley. Yum!! Will definitely be using this often as a side dish recipe.

This is awesome. We've also added leftover cooked chicken to make it a main course. So easy and so delicious.

This is my "go to" rice dish for company. It always tastes great, is easy to prepare, and compliments just about any type of meat or fish. The fresh mushrooms are yummy, but I have used canned mushrooms when in a hurry. I've also left them out for picky grandkids. Delicious! I highly recommend it!
