Variations Ideas
- Cream Soup – We used canned cream soup but you can also make Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup or Homemade Cream of Mushroom Soup. We have even substituted cream of mushroom with cream of celery soup.
- Chicken – We used chicken breast in this recipe, but you can also use chicken thighs or chicken tenders.
Step by Step Instructions
- Step 1 – Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spray a 9 X 13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 2 – In a large bowl whisk together cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth and sprinkle onion soup mix. Then stir in the uncooked rice.
Step 3 – Spread this mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Lay the chicken breasts on top of the rice mixture and season them with salt and pepper.
- Step 4 – Cover the pan with aluminum foil. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes until the rice and chicken are cooked through in a preheated oven.
- Step 5 – Remove the pan from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. Then remove the foil from the pan and the chicken and rice is ready to serve and enjoy. We like to garnish with parsley right before serving.
Recipe Tips
- Prepare Baking Dish – Before pouring the soup mixture into the baking dish, make sure to spray with cooking spray. This helps for an easy cleanup and makes serving a breeze.
- Rice – There is no need to cook the rice before placing into the soup mixture. The rice will cook while in the oven with the chicken mixture.
- Cover Chicken and Rice – While the chicken and rice is baking, cover with aluminum foil and bake. This helps to lock in the heat while the chicken and rice cook. Remember this is a no peek dish so there is no need to flip the chicken.
