CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM RICE CASSEROLE FOR DUMMIES



Chicken and Mushroom Rice Casserole for Dummies image

An adaptation, IMHO, a perfection of an old standard. Mom used to make her version in the morning, set the oven timer, and come home to a delicious meal. (Use frozen chicken if you do this.)

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 1 casserole, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup (could substitute cream of celery)
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can 2% low-fat milk, using one of the soup cans to measure (note, this is ONE can total NOT per can of soup as the soup directions may indicate)
3 -4 boneless chicken breasts, chicken tender strips work too
1 cup uncooked instant Minute Rice
lemon pepper (optional)
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees (see baking instructions for alternate methods).
  • Mix the 2 cans of soup, 1 can milk, and 1 cup of uncooked rice together. Add salt & pepper to taste.
  • Pour above mixture into a 13x9x2 casserole dish.
  • Cut the chicken into strips (about the width of a chicken tender/finger).
  • Push the chicken strips down into the soup & rice mixture in the casserole dish so they are completely emerged.
  • Sprinkle top with lemon pepper/salt/black pepper.
  • Bake at 350 degrees 35-40 minutes or until chicken is finished. NOTE that cooking time will vary depending on how you choose to cut up the chicken. If using whole chicken breasts cook at 375 degrees for 45 minutes, or until finished.
  • You may also choose to make this in a crock pot, if so, cook on low 7-8 hours.
  • My family loves this recipe and it is SOOOO easy to make, plus I usually have all of these ingredients on hand which makes for a quick meal.
  • I love the flavors of the rice so much that sometimes I will make it without the chicken as a quick and easy side dish!

MAMAW'S CHICKEN AND RICE CASSEROLE



Mamaw's Chicken and Rice Casserole image

I grew up on this recipe, my Grandmother got it from a lady from church at a pot luck a long time ago! She passed it down to my mom and it's always been a family favorite. Quick and easy for school nights, and the leftovers are just as good! You can use less butter on top of course, my Momma and Mamaw always put the full stick on top (gotta love Southern ladies and their butter!)
