Receta Crunchy Chicken Rice Casserole
Putting leftovers together with pantry and fridge basics one evening I came up with this family pleaser. Water chestnuts and almonds provide the crunch. A green veggie side and/or tossed salad round out this weeknight dinner perfectly.
Ingredientes
- 1 cup long grain rice uncooked (or 3.5 to 4 cups cooked)
