2 cups heavy cream
2 cups chicken broth

1 sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed

Directions:

(2) In a large microwave-safe bowl whisk the cream, broth and mustard together. Microwave on high until boiling. About 8 minutes.
(3) Meanwhile, pat the chicken dry with paper towels, then cut into 2" chunks. Spread in a greased 9x13" baking dish and season with salt and pepper.
(4) Stir the rice into the cream mixture,t hen pour over the chicken. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes.
