One Dish Chicken and Rice Bake

I made this chicken last night and was very disappointed. I used Basmatti long grain brown rice, mixed it with the water and soup and placed it in the bottom of the pan with chick on top. I covered it and baked it for 45 minutes...while the chicken was more than done the rice didn't fully cook and everything was watery.Given the other high review I must have done something very wrong! I ended up cooking some more rice on the stove to add to the pan to try and salvage the meal.

Used packaged cream of mushroom mix and a small can of pieces and stems of mushroom. My other half had to work late so I refrigerated her share and reheated it the following day both times excellent and the clean up is the best part. One dish to wash is always a plus. Thanks Bev.

I have this recipe but I add 1 pkg. dry onion soup mix to the soup and 1 can of mushrooms. Very good!

I made this tasty little dish last night, and my family and I enjoyed it so much, there was none left. I did use whole chicken legs instead, and added creole seasoning as well. This is a keeper which I will be making again. Thanx for posting.

This dish has been one of my MIL's standard dinners for years and years. I used to make it a lot in the late 70s and 80s, too. It is easy to put together and makes a great meal when served with a green veg. The recipe also works well with pork chops (just brown them first). I always used to season the chicken or chops with a wee bit of poultry seasoning. Make sure you use regular long-grain rice in this dish; minute rice will go too mushy and brown rice won't cook thoroughly. Thanks Bev, for posting this classic for all to discover.

Pretty tasty, easy to make supper. It was a little bland, so next time would add in some extra seasonings, maybe the dry onion soup mix as others have. Made using chicken tenders since that's what we had. Thanks for posting!

My husband didn't like this because he found the rice too mushy. It's pretty much what you expect rice mixed with cream of mushroom to taste like. It might appeal to kids.

I screwed this up big time! I was able to salvage it though- I used brown rice and added extra water in hopes it would cook fully at 400 degrees for 45 mins. I did cut my chicken into bite size pieces. Cooking for 45 mins at 400 degrees didn't work so I poured it into a sauce pan and simmered it for a while- my rice still wasn't fully cooked so I kept adding water and boiling it until my rice was cooked. Finally some success! I did use cream of chicken soup because that's what I had on hand plus some green onion that I needed to use up, a sprinkle of poultry seasoning, a dash of red pepper flakes and about 2 T of sour cream to make this extra creamy. I'm not even sure if I should rate this but I do plan on making it the real way next time. Another oops was that my chicken was marinaded in a garlic and herb dressing but it all worked out in the end.

My kids ate this!!! My 6yo dd, who is very picky and claims to HATE rice ate everything on her plate. She even had 2nds on the chicken. I did add some extra water and sprinkled cheese on top for the last 10 mins of bake time. Some of the other reviews said it was simple or bland so I added garlic and roasted red pepper seasoning to the mixture. Very tasty!!!

I had to use cubed chicken and cream of celery soup. I used 1/4 cup of white wine and 3/4 cup of water. Instead of just 1 cup of water. Tasted wonderful. Hubby and kid were happy.

It was good, but kinda plain. I even added about a teaspoon of chicken soup base to the soup/water mixture to try and perk it up. It's a good, basic recipe that I will more than likely make again, it's just nothing to write home about.

A Great base to work with :) I love rice and this is an easy guidline. i cut the chicken smaller for prefrence, and added garlic pepper seasoning and 1/4 cup sour cream and corn. Next time i may try some chili powder and black beans :)

Just like I remember my grandmother making. The only difference was she used a cut up chicken. I tweaked only a little by sprinkling some garlic powder, and Herbes de Provence along with the Paprika, over the tops of the Chicken before baking. Rice came out just right and chicken was moist & juicy. Thanks for posting.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but found that it really lacked flavor. I wish I had taken some of the advice of other raters and added some other flavors. I did add some mushrooms, but it really didn't taste like much at all.

This was quite good and very simple to make. I only had a clean 3 qt. casserole dish so I used that and just used two cans of soup and 1 3/4 cups water and also used a full cup of rice. I also added mrs dash garlic and herb seasoning just to add some more flavor. I think there is a bit too much pepper to it, but it turned out great. The chicken stayed moist and the rice was nice and creamy. I did have to stir it part way through baking because the rice was sticking to the dish, but it was no trouble. Oh I also added a handful of shredded cheese to the mix before baking. We served it with steamed broccoli which complimented it well.

This is a nice, basic weeknight dinner. I did tweak it a little: I used Healthy Substitute for Cream of Chicken Soup instead of canned cream of mushroom (a healthier and more appealing alternative) and therefore I cut back the water to 3/4 cup; I cut up 1 lb of chicken breast and mixed it in with the rice; and I sprinkled generously with salt and pepper. I added the whole 1/2 tsp of paprika to the entire mix. I cooked for 40-45 minutes so that the rice was fully cooked but the chicken was slightly overdone. Next time, I will cut the chicken into bigger chunks. But the flavor was very good and the casserole lends itself to be served with a variety of side dishes. I also cooked some brown rice separately and mixed it in with the chicken and rice before serving to add a bit more dimension to the dish. Thanks for posting!

I love this as a base for chicken rice bake. I make it all of the time. This time, I doubled it, added a can of drained asparagus, a handful of French fried onions, and topped with an envelope of dry onion soup mix and clipped green onions. I did use ff mushroom soup to allow for the ff onions.

We all really liked this. My only complaint was that the chicken was dry. I think next time I may try using tenders or cutting the chicken into pieces. Other wise the flavor was good and I'll work on making the chicken work for us. I served it with French Green Beans With Garlic and Sliced Almonds Haricot Vert - French Green Beans With Garlic and Sliced Almonds which was a great compliment to this dish. Thanks for posting.
