Mike's EZ Cheesy Chicken & Rice instructions
- Heat oven to 375°..
- Whisk your wet ingredients and spices well. Then add rice and vegetable melody and mix..
- I usually brine my chicken if not grilling it to ensure its juciness. If you're interested - simply quarter your chicken breasts [or, leave them whole - it's up to you] add enough water to cover chicken and add 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 tablespoons salt. Also, 1 tablespoon Onion Powder and 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder. Massage well and place in the fridge for 2 hours. A little longer if you're leaving large pieces whole. Ziplock Bags work well. If not, just rinse, trim fat and throw them in your oven safe dish..
- Bake covered for 50 minutes to 1 hour. Important: Stir dish once during baking. Check after 50 mins to ensure both the rice and chicken are fully cooked. If not, bake longer and intermittently check / stir your dish. Do not bake on a cookie sheet as it will drastically effect your baking time..
- Once they are - stir dish and top casserole with your three quarters [or less] cup of shredded cheese. Place back in the oven for 5+ additional minutes or, until cheese is melted..
- Allow casserole to set for at least 10 minutes covered before serving. Enjoy!.
