Ingredients

1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 cup water
3/4 cup long grain rice
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 (6-7 ounces) boneless skinless chicken breasts

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In an 11x8-inch baking dish, add soup (1 can) and water (1 cup); whisk to combine. Stir in rice, paprika (1/4 teaspoon), and black pepper (1/4 teaspoon) and stir to combine. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Pat chicken breast (4) dry with paper towels and generously season with salt and pepper.
Remove the baking dish from the oven and carefully remove aluminum foil. Place chicken breast on top of rice (3/4 cup). Cover the baking dish with foil and return to the oven for 15-20 minutes (depending on the thickness of the chicken) or rice is tender and until chicken breasts are cooked through and an instant-read thermometer reads 165 degrees.

Notes

Food Handling: A reminder to handle raw chicken appropriately and disinfect hands and cooking utensils properly.
Stirring in the soup: Using a fork or a whisk, I mix just the soup and water together first until the soup is diluted. Then, add the rice and the spices and stir them until they’re well distributed.
The foil: make sure you have a tight seal with the foil. The chicken will put quite a bit of moisture into the mix as it cooks and adds delicious flavor, so make sure you get the foil back on tightly after adding the chicken. Use oven mitts to fold the foil around the hot pan.
Spices: This old school chicken and rice casserole is not overly spiced. If you want to add a bit of heat, consider some crushed red pepper. A pinch of garlic, cumin, or rosemary are all good options as well.
