| 1 can (10.5 oz) | Cream of Chicken Soup |
| 3/4 cup | Water |
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
-
Prepare Baking Pan: Line a 9-inch square baking pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil, ensuring it hangs over the edges for easy removal later. Set aside.
-
Cook Chicken Mixture: In a medium skillet, combine the ground chicken, diced onion, and garlic pepper over medium-high heat. Cook until the chicken is browned and the onions are translucent, ensuring the flavors meld together beautifully.
-
Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, frozen mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, water, and the cooked chicken mixture. Mix everything well, ensuring each ingredient is evenly distributed for a harmonious flavor profile.
-
Transfer to Baking Pan: Spoon the prepared mixture into the foil-lined baking pan, spreading it out evenly to ensure even cooking.
-
Cover and Bake: Cover the baking pan tightly with additional foil to seal in the flavors and moisture. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the rice and vegetables are tender and cooked to perfection.
-
Let Stand: Once baked, carefully remove the pan from the oven and allow it to stand for 5 minutes before serving. This resting period allows the flavors to further develop and ensures the dish is at the perfect temperature for enjoyment.
-
Serve: Serve this delectable Family Style Chicken & Rice Dinner hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired, and enjoy the heartwarming satisfaction of a comforting homemade meal shared with loved ones.
Tips:
- For added flavor, consider seasoning the ground chicken with your favorite herbs and spices before cooking.
- Feel free to customize the vegetable mix according to your preferences or what you have on hand.
- To make cleanup even easier, consider using a disposable aluminum baking pan instead of lining a regular one with foil.
