FRENCH ONION CHICKEN & RICE BAKE

 

This French onion chicken & rice bake will have your whole family coming back for seconds! It’s so easy to make during the busy weeknight and it’s a must to add in your weeknight meal rotation! It also makes plenty for leftovers! 

Ingredients:

• 2 cups minute white rice (cooked accordingly to the package. You can use brown rice also)
• 3 cups cooked shredded chicken (I used a rotisserie chicken, but you can also cook & shred your own)
• 1 cup refrigerated French onion sour cream dip (I used Cabot brand but there’s lots of others too)
• 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
• 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese 
• French fried onions (enough to cover the top of your chicken bake, I used about 1/2 of the container)

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
2. In a bowl combine your cooked rice, shredded chicken, shredded cheese, sour cream dip & chicken soup
3. Spray your baking dish with cooking spray (9x13”) and add in your chicken mixture 
4. Evenly top with your French fried onions 
5. Bake for 30 min or until your chicken bake is hot! NOTE: about halfway into baking I covered my loosely with foil so my onions didn’t get too crispy/burned on top
6. Serve with your favorite sides such as a salad or veggies & enjoy!
