Best Chicken A La Charlie Recipes
CHARLIE CHICKEN
One of the constant recipes in our house. A very elegant presentation with very little effort. Charlie was a dear friend, and a great cook. I was 13 yrs old the first time I made this, and now @ 30+none-of-your-business, this dish is made at least once a month in my house. Everytime this dish is requested, cooked & tasted, the memories of Charlie fill my house and my heart, bringing him close again. ********* Please note - I no longer use a cut-up fryer as I did in the original recipe. My family is a breast group, with the occasional thigh & legs if Grandkids are coming over...

Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 350°.
- Using a Non-Stick Spray of your choice, coat a 9x13 casserole dish (a LIGHT rub of vegetable oil will work just as well).
- Place chicken breasts in dish, barely touching each other- Skin side UP.
- Pour in 3/4 cup water, allowing it to go around each piece of chicken.
- Open 2 packets of Lipton Onion Soup & Dip Mix, and sprinkle all over chicken, using the entire packages.
- Cover & seal casserole COMPLETELY with aluminum foil.
- Bake at 350° for 60 min or until chicken is tender and completely cooked, (180°when checked with thermometer){See Notes below}.
- Uncle Bens Brown & Wild Rice Mushroom Directions:.
- Using Medium saucepan combine rice, contents of seasoning packet, 4 1/4 cups water and 2 tablespoons butter or margarine.
- Stir well.
- Bring contents to a boil, REDUCE HEAT (low to medium low) and simmer covered 25 minutes or until water is absorbed.
- Place chicken on a bed of the Uncle Ben's rice, making sure to get plenty of the sauce that is around the chicken.
- Sprinkle with fresh chopped Parsley.
- Enjoy!
- ***NOTE***.
- This recipe was originally cooked in an electric skillet at 375° for 1 1/2 hours, with steam vent closed, and NO added water.
- It always came out moist w/ a fine gravy/sauce. I lost my electric skillet in a house fire, being on SS I never have the $ to get another I liked, so I changed the recipe for the oven. The difference in heat source I guess makes the need for added moisture.
- Adding the small amount of water makes a gravy/sauce that is super when served as suggested.
- There are many choices of Uncle Ben's Rice Recipes, choose the one you prefer. I like to add extra mushrooms, or other special touches such as parsley, and sometimes I just use a standard rice pilaf, with tiny chips of veggies.
- We never make any other side dishes, this is more than satisfying.
- Do not fuss over finger licking as people continue to pick every bite off the bones.
