Steps:

• Cut chicken breasts into strips and cook thoroughly and then put into 9x12 casserole dish.
• In medium saucepan, melt margarine on low - medium heat. Add flour gradually. Mix until smooth. (*note: if the flour/margarine mixture starts getting too dry, just add a little more margarine so that the mixture will be balanced and smooth. Same goes for adding more flour if the mixture is too wet---you don't want it too dry and you don't want it too wet)

• Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes. Add cheese and bake until melted. Serve over bed of white rice.
