Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Creamy Chicken and Rice Casserole

I saw a pitchure in a book the other day and it looked so good! But it was not ibs safe so I made it Ibs safe! It was so good heres the recipe enjoy
3 good size chicken breast cut into strips
2 cups rice (brown or white or mix)
Cream of mushroom recipe use this one and double it.
1/2 cup fresh mushrooms, finely chopped
1/3 cup soy milk or other "milk" of choice
1/2 cup of vegetable broth (I find vegetable more flavourful than chicken broth, but you can use chicken broth if you like)
1/4 tsp dried basil
1 tbs dry white cooking wine (the alcohol will cook out)- optional
2 tbs cornstarch

Spray a non-stick frying pan with cooking spray, and saute mushrooms until tender. Put aside. Combine the soy milk, broth, the basil, and the wine in a saucepan and heat until just beginning to simmer. Slowly whisk cornstarch into the hot "cream" mixture. Continue cooking until it has thickened. Remove from heat, and stir in mushrooms. From my experience with cornstarch vs. flour gravies, the cornstarch should give it a nice gelatanous texture as it cools - and hopefully will be very similar to the canned condensed cream of mushroom soup!
Cook chicken and rice seperate when chickens done and cream of mushrooms done mix it with the chicken. I put the chicken on top of my rice and it was so good. I also serve this with cooked carrots and green beans. It perfect for leftovers the next day.
