I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chicken rice pilaf turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked the rice.

I was really looking forward to trying this recipe, but I was disappointed. The chicken was dry and the rice was mushy.

I'm not a big fan of chicken rice pilaf, but I have to say this recipe was pretty good. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the rice was fluffy.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.
