2. Put a layer of rice in the bottom.
3. Lay the chicken pieces over the rice.
4. Mix the boiling water and mushroom soup.
5. Pour mushroom mixture over chicken.
6. Shake dry onion soup mix over top of chicken.
7. Sprinkle a little garlic and parsley over all(to taste).

9. Place in pre heated oven at 325 degrees farenheit for 11/2 hours.
10. (The original recipe stated that you were not to cover, but I cover it with tin foil for the first hour and remove it for the last 1/2 hr as it makes the rice more moist which is how we prefer it.
