Chicken Broccoli and Rice Casserole

My daughter, Amy bought this broccoli and rice stuffed chicken from Herbert's (pronounced a-bear) Specialty Meats and it was fabulous. It was dripping in butter and had just the right amount of heat in it. So naturally I have tried to recreate the recipe and I have gotten real close. try it, your family will love it!
