Recipe by

I wanted to create a MEAL IN ONE dish for dinner today, & decided to make this dish using pre seasoned Chicken Breast I had previously frozen. Coating them in flour then browning them in melted margarine would cut the time in the oven. Then adding the Wild Rice, & other veggies, would definitely make this a meal in one. The sour cream & soup blended together with the Sherry and Italian seasoning would add lots of flavor not to mention the delicious sauce over the wild Rice. It was a perfect combination, & my husband loved it & complimented me without my even asking if he enjoyed it.
