Equipment

  • 9 x 13 baking dish

Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ pounds Chicken breasts I buy 2 large and cut them into 2 thin pieces each.
  • 2 cups rice uncooked
  • 2 cans cream of chicken soup
  • 1 envelope onion soup mix
  • 2 cups chicken broth low sodium will reduce the salt level in this recipe.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F
  • In a medium bowl, mix canned chicken soup, onion soup and chicken broth until well mixed. Pour into 9 x 13 baking dish .
  • Place 4 chicken pieces on top of rice.
    Securely cover with aluminum foil. You don't want the liquid to evaporate.
  • Cook for 1 ½ hours. Check if rice is tender and chicken is cooked through.
  • I let this sit for 5 minutes. Then I take the chicken out, fluff the rice and place the chicken back onto the rice. Sprinkle some fresh herbs like parsley, chives or green onion on top for color. If you don't have fresh herbs handy, use dried herbs like parsley or chives.

Notes

Recipe Tips

      • Salt (sodium) level can be reduced using low-sodium products and water instead of beef broth.
      • Chicken breast meat can be replaced by chicken thigh.

    Sides to serve with

    Serve with simple bright colored sides such as steamed green beans, steamed broccoli or cooked carrots. In the summer, I enjoy a salad instead of cooked vegetables as my side.
