Minute Rice Five Spice Casserole Recipes

EASY CHICKEN & MINUTE RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees (see baking instructions for alternate methods).
• Mix the 2 cans of soup, 1 can milk, and 1 cup of uncooked rice together. Add salt & pepper to taste.
• Pour above mixture into a 13x9x2 casserole dish.
• Cut the chicken into strips (about the width of a chicken tender/finger).
• Push the chicken strips down into the soup & rice mixture in the casserole dish so they are completely emerged.
• Sprinkle top with lemon pepper/salt/black pepper.
• Bake at 350 degrees 35-40 minutes or until chicken is finished. NOTE that cooking time will vary depending on how you choose to cut up the chicken. If using whole chicken breasts cook at 375 degrees for 45 minutes, or until finished.
• You may also choose to make this in a crock pot, if so, cook on low 7-8 hours.
• My family loves this recipe and it is SOOOO easy to make, plus I usually have all of these ingredients on hand which makes for a quick meal.
• I love the flavors of the rice so much that sometimes I will make it without the chicken as a quick and easy side dish!

• Instead of olives, we sometimes use jalepenos.
