I made this dish for Christmas dinner and everyone loved it! One son thought the cranberries were too sweet, but he just ate around it. All the adults loved it. I used precooked chicken breast, so I simmered the fresh herbs in some chicken broth for a few minutes then removed the herbs and made the rice with that and followed the recipe for everything else. The cranberry mixture was thick, but I just dropped spoonfuls around the top and it was fine. Great recipe, making it now to take to a friend!

I made this with a little trepidation - and a few changes - but to my surprise my partner LOVED it! I cut the herbs/spices about in half, used more rice (wild and brown rice blend from Whole Foods plus the 1/2 cup wild rice I had, Jarlsberg for the Gruyere, and substituted cornstarch-thickened skim milk for half of the cream as I only had half a carton. Also, I didn't have any mushrooms in stock so I put in peas! It came out creamy, subtly exotic and (I was told "magic". I think I would make more of the topping next time, maybe double the cranberries and crumbs - the berries were a nice tart counterpoint to the sweet savory sauce. I will definitely make this again!

This will be my 4th time making this recipe. It is a favorite cold day dish. Very savory and flavorful. It is nice to help cooking this as several pans going at once make it easier with help.

This dish was delicious and a nice change from traditional chicken and rice casseroles. The dish is just as good the next day as leftovers! The cranberries were still pretty tart so I will cook them longer next time.

This is a great fall recipe. I used all dry herbs and i had to use canned cranberries because i couldn't find fresh or frozen ones! i also used red onions for more color. I did not use salt anywhere in the dish, i substituted for garlic salt. I also boiled the chicken breast with the skin and bone (separated from the meat in the same pot for more flavor. the dish has a lot of complex and subtle flavors. the gruyere really sets the dish off - i have found that Krogers (or similar satelite stores have apple bacon smoked gruyere for ~$4.99/ 8oz and thats what i used. I think the apple bacon smoked cheese added to the complexity.

I'm not fond of casseroles but this was great. Went all out and used the ingredients as called for except cranberries. Expensive? Yes, but worth every penny. Will definitely make again.
