Three words: Creamy, Warm, Delicious! I made this casserole up tonight with what I had on hand and it was amazingly delicious. I call it Love Your Husband chicken because he said I must love him a lot to feed him this! Very easy to make, and even easier to eat.
Love Your Husband Chicken by Erin Taylor
Preheat Oven to 375deg.
Use a medium casserole dish, or 8 X 9 baking dish, spray with pan spray.
Spread 1 C. Uncooked Rice (I used Jasmine, but any white or long grain rice will do) in bottom of baking dish.
Pour 1 C. Water over rice.
Sprinkle 1 C. Frozen peas over rice.
Lay 6 Chicken Thighs (deboned, no skin, opened up flat) across peas and rice.
Sprinkle with a little salt for flavor.
Chop 1/2 large Red Bell Pepper and sprinkle over Chicken Thighs.
In mixing bowl combine:
1 can Cream of Mushroom, celery, or chicken soup,
1 C. finely grated Parmesan Cheese
2 tsp. Garlic powder or salt
1 C. Water
Pour sauce mixture over chicken. Using a spoon, move each chicken piece aside to allow sauce to seep down through the cracks on the sides and in the middle.
Finally, chop two slices of uncooked Bacon and sprinkle on top of casserole. Place, uncovered, in preheated oven and bake for 1 hour until sauce is bubbly and beginning to brown a bit on the sides, and chicken is fully cooked in the middle.
