Recipe



What I did: I mixed all the spices together and then sprinkled on both sides of the chicken breasts (I had 5 plump breasts). Put in pan, added onion on top and then water.

It took about 15 mins to cook chicken (they were BIG breasts Wink)

Cut up chicken as per recipe. Drained liquid from the skillet and added the red onion on top of the chix. Threw the liquid away.

Used 1 1/2 cans of rotelle (drained)

As for the cream cheese. I used 4 oz. Sliced the cream cheese and put it on top(couldn't figure out how to spread it. Roll Eyes)

... and then followed the directions as per above.
