Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup Long-grain white rice
• 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of chicken soup
• 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of mushroom soup
• 1.5 cups Water
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 tablespoons (optional, for richness) Butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish lightly with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, water, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined.

Step 3

Spread the uncooked long-grain white rice evenly across the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.

Step 4

Pour the soup mixture over the rice, ensuring the rice is fully submerged and evenly coated.

Step 5

Place the chicken breasts on top of the rice mixture. If desired, dot the chicken breasts with small pats of butter for extra richness.

Step 6

Cover the casserole dish tightly with aluminum foil. Ensure there are no gaps or holes in the foil to trap the steam inside.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 90 minutes. Do not remove the foil or peek inside while it cooks, allowing the dish to steam and cook thoroughly.

Step 8

After 90 minutes, carefully remove the foil and check that the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C) and the rice is tender.

Step 9

Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve hot and enjoy!
