Sprinkle with dry onion soup mix. Pour the 2 cups of uncooked rice over this; set aside. Mix the 2 cans of cream of chicken soup with the 2 cans of water. Pour evenly over chicken and rice. Cover tightly with aluminum foil. Bake 350° for 1 hour until chicken is done. Do not peek until done. I have added chopped carrots to this dish also and it turns out great every time. Hope you like it. Joanne RE: Recreating a Friend's Chicken and Rice Casserole Post By Carol. (Guest Post) (01/21/2008) This is a recipe I've made for years....it sounds a lot like the recipe your friend made....we love it-and I ESPECIALLY love it on those real hectic days because it's so easy to throw together! Hope this helps you out! Carol BUSY DAY CHICKEN AND RICE CASSEROLE 1 can cream of mushroom soup 1 can cream of celery soup 1 c. water 1 heaping cup long-grain rice (not instant rice-I use the Uncle Ben's long grain-have even used brown rice and that works fine too) 1 (4 oz.) can sliced mushrooms, optional 6 pieces chicken, skin removed (I use boneless, skinless chicken breasts, but you can use also use the legs and thighs) Garlic powder, onion powder and pepper to taste (to season the chicken pieces) 1/2 pkt. dry onion soup mix Mix cream of mushroom soup, cream of celery soup, mushrooms (if desired) and water together in the bottom of a 13x9x2" baking dish; sprinkle on rice. Season chicken pieces with garlic powder, onion powder and pepper (if desired) and lay chicken over the soup/rice mixture. Sprinkle the dry onion soup evenly over all. Cover tightly with foil. Bake @ 325 degrees for 2 hours. I use the lower fat and sodium soups with great results. RE: Recreating a Friend's Chicken and Rice Casserole Post By nellyday @ aol com. (Guest Post) (01/19/2008) I use a recipe from Campbell's website called Chicken and Rice casserole. It uses Canned Cream of chicken soup and I bump it up with some more seasonings. Starts on the stove and ends in the oven in about 45 cooking minutes. Look on their website, see if it sounds good and then I can tell you how I "customize" it.

She also used to put some Adobo seasoning in it too.
