Chicken and Rice Casserole

Barbara Whiting
I really like making this chicken and rice casserole during busy week nights. It only takes a few minutes to assemble and my family loves it.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 1 hour

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups uncooked Minute Rice
  • 1 package Lipton's Onion Soup Mix, dry
  • 1 cup water
  • Boneless, skinless chicken (About 12 small thighs or 6 large chicken breasts, cut in half.)
  • McCormick's Montreal Steak Seasoning (or any other seasoning you prefer.)
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup, mixed with 1 1/2 cups chicken broth (or water)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Preparation:

In 12 x 9 baking dish, pour the 2 cups of uncooked Minute Rice. Sprinkle the dry soup mix over this evenly. Pour the one cup water over rice and soup mix. Arrange the chicken pieces on top of the rice; sprinkle with the Montreal seasoning to taste.

Pour the cream of chicken soup/broth or water mixture over all. Sprinkle with cheese if desired. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees F for about 60-70 minutes. Let it sit for about 5 minutes or so before serving. Makes about 6 servings. You could substitute other cream-of soups, like cream of mushroom, if you want.
