Description

A warm and creamy casserole perfect for busy weeknights, filled with tender chicken, fluffy rice, and delightful flavors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup white rice
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 packet onion soup mix
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Combine the cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, onion soup mix, and sour cream in a large mixing bowl. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
  3. Spread the white rice evenly across the bottom of a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
  4. Place the chicken breasts on top of the rice in a single layer, and season generously with salt and pepper.
  5. Pour the soup mixture over the chicken and rice, ensuring everything is covered.
  6. If desired, sprinkle shredded cheese on top for an extra layer of gooey goodness.
  7. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour.
  8. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, and the rice is tender.
  9. Let it cool a bit before serving.

Notes

This casserole can be assembled the night before and refrigerated. Use rotisserie chicken to cut down on prep time.
