Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup uncooked long-grain rice
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the casserole.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, uncooked long-grain rice, cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, milk, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly mixed.
  3. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly to ensure consistent cooking.
  4. Bake the Casserole: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for about 45-50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and fully cooked. You can test doneness by tasting a small spoonful of rice.
  5. Rest and Serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the casserole to set and makes it easier to dish out.

Notes

  • You can substitute cream of mushroom soup with another can of cream of chicken soup if preferred.
  • For extra flavor, add chopped onions or celery to the mixture before baking.
  • If you prefer, use brown rice; however, increase the cooking time accordingly as brown rice takes longer to cook.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for 3-4 days and reheated in the oven or microwave.
