Country Chicken and Rice Bake

Chicken and Rice made the old-fashioned way – Southern Style. This is a favorite a classic comforting dish.

Ingredients:

• 1 can Campbell’s cream of mushroom or chicken soup diluted with 1 can of water, mixed until smooth.
• 1pkg dry Lipton onion soup mix
• Enough water mixed with the diluted soup to make about 4 ½ cups liquid, total
• 2 cups white rice
• 8 or so pieces of chicken, preferably thighs, or whole cut up fryer (if using bone in breasts cut crosswise into smaller pieces)

Directions:

• Preheat oven 375. In a large bowl or measuring cup dilute the soup and mix until smooth. Then add the dry soup and remaining water to make 4 ½ cups liquid total.
• Spray a 9×13 pan with cooking spray, pour in rice.
• Pour liquid into pan over the rice, gently stir until well mixed.
• Place chicken over the rice(don’t worry it will look like too much liquid but it’s not).
• Cover with foil and bake for 1 hr. Take foil off and bake about 10 min more or until the liquid is absorbed.
