1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup

1 can (10.5 oz) chicken broth

Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Prepare the Baking Dish: Grease a large 9×13-inch baking dish or casserole dish to prevent sticking.

Add the Onion Soup Mix: Sprinkle the onion soup mix over the top for extra flavor.

Season and Cover: Lightly season with salt and pepper. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.

Bake and Forget: Place the covered dish in the oven and bake for about 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through.

Serve and Enjoy: Carefully remove the foil (watch out for steam!) and serve the chicken and rice hot.
