Oriental Chicken Casserole image

This recipe came from the back of an instant rice box. Its a good one if you are in a hurry to cook dinner. It tastes pretty good too. You can add things you normally like in this type of casserole and that's what makes it so versatile. Sometimes, I even add a hotter, spicy flavor to it, depending on our mood at the time. Cook time does not include time to cook zucchini.
