Baked Chicken & Rice Casserole
A simple Chicken and Rice casserole that is made by mixing soup, water, rice and seasonings then topped off with chicken and baked in the oven. One of the easiest meals you can make and you can make it in just a few minutes. This is one of my husbands favorite meals and I have made it for him for almost 30 years.

welcome.
This looks delicious !
Thank you so much!
This is very similar to a dish I make but mine uses mushroom soup and some canned mushrooms in the rice part.
The original Campbell Soup recipe calls for cream of mushroom soup. I make it both ways but like it with cream of chicken better. It tastes completely different. Try it some time it’s wonderful.
I will have to do that.
I saw the word easy and immediately liked it 🙂
And easy it is Kristen. Thank you!
Something similar my mom used to do 🙂 Delicious 🙂
This has been around for decades. A great family meal. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing!
My God that looks good! I make one similiar that has cream of mushroom soup and a packed of Lipton dry onion soup mix and Minute Rice.
It looks like your recipe uses NOT fast-cooking Minute rice, right? Just regular rice that you normally have to boil for like 20 minutes? A lot of these recipes don’t specify and I’m like “Am I supposed to use regular rice or Minute rice???”
I tried a similar recipe once and my REGULAR rice didn’t cook all the way so I’m scared to use the regular rice now.
But I know your recipe is tried and true so I will be brave and use regular rice.
Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Yes use regular long grain rice. If you follow my directions exactly and bake for an hour it will be perfect. Just remember to stir the rice well around the chicken after 45 minutes. This can have two completely different tastes by using either Cream of Chicken soup or Cream of Mushroom soup. I like it with the chicken soup and my husband likes the mushroom soup best….the cook wins I used chicken soup….lol
Thanks for the tip! I’m excited to try it with the chicken soup.
Ohmygosh Diane! Imagine my horror when I came in at the 45 minute mark to stir and scrape from the bottom and realized I hadn’t covered the dish!!!
Luckily, it still worked!!!! I stirred and scraped and then covered for the last 15 minutes and it still came out perfectly. Whew!!!!
So delicious! I tossed in some peas cuz we needed a vegetable (HA!) and cannot WAIT until breakfast so I can eat some more.
Oh no I am so glad it still turned out!!! I would have thought it would have dried out. You lucked out…lol The addition of peas sounds wonderful, great idea! ❤
Condensed soups are a great “cheat”, I use them all the time when I am in the campervan (RV) and cannot be bothered to make proper sauces from scratch.

I don’t think up all my recipes. I get inspired and change other recipes too…. to our liking.
This is definitely super easy to make yum!
It really is! Thank you!
Yum!!
Thanks!
Looks delicious
Thank you!
So simple – yet it looks so dee-lish! I love chicken & rice “pairings”.
This is a Campbell Soup recipe that I changed the soup from cream of mushroom to cream of chicken soup. We have eaten this way forever. It is such an easy recipe and one of our favorites! Thanks so much!
Yay!!!!!!! We love this meal and now that you christened the casserole dish you can use it more! hahahaha
Diane! We tried this recipe the other night and loved it! Thank you. 🙂
I am so glad you loved it! I have made this for years and it is one of my husbands favorites! Thanks for letting me know. ❤️
