Forgotten Chicken – The Best Comfort Casserole You’ve Probably Overlooked


  • Author: kynall
  • Total Time: 1 hour 40 minutes

Description

A classic comfort dish made with simple pantry staples just mix, layer, and bake!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups instant (minute) rice

  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup

  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of celery soup

  • 1 can of water (use one of the soup cans for measuring)

  • 5 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 lbs)

  • 1 envelope dry onion soup mix

  • Butter, for greasing the baking dish


Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly butter a 9×13-inch baking dish and set aside.

  • Mix the base: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, cream of celery soup, water, and minute rice. Stir until everything is well blended.

  • Assemble the dish: Pour the rice mixture into your prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Lay the chicken breasts over the top of the rice.

  • Add the flavor: Sprinkle the dry onion soup mix evenly over the chicken.

  • Cover and bake: Tightly cover the dish with aluminum foil. Bake for about 90 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the rice has absorbed the liquid.

  • Serve warm with a side of steamed vegetables or a crisp green salad.

 

Notes

🍽 Tip: Want extra flavor? Try adding a handful of shredded cheddar cheese during the last 10 minutes of baking or stir in some frozen peas before baking for a pop of color
