Kitchen Essentials
Before we jump into cooking, let’s gather the essential tools you’ll need:
- 9 x 13 baking pan
- Medium bowl
- Aluminum foil
- Oven preheated to 350°F (175°C)
Amazing Forgotten Chicken
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups Minute rice
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 1 can of water (use one of the soup cans for measurement)
- 1 envelope Lipton onion soup mix
- 1 tbsp butter
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Start by setting your oven to 350°F (175°C) so it’s hot and ready when your casserole is assembled.
- Prepare the Casserole Dish: Take a 9×13-inch casserole dish and lightly grease it with butter to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a medium bowl, blend the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, Minute rice, and one can of water. Stir until everything is well combined, making sure the rice is evenly coated in the creamy mixture.
- Assemble the Casserole: Pour the rice and soup mixture into your greased casserole dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom. Place the chicken breasts on top of the rice mixture, ensuring they’re spaced out evenly.
- Add the Finishing Touches: Open the envelope of Lipton onion soup mix and sprinkle it generously over the chicken. This will add a wonderful savory flavor and a bit of crunch.
- Bake the Dish: Cover the casserole dish tightly with aluminum foil to lock in moisture, which helps the rice and chicken cook evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the rice is tender.
- Serving: Once done, remove the dish from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes to let the flavors meld. Serve hot and savor the creamy, comforting taste of your Amazing Forgotten Chicken!
