Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This step is crucial for ensuring even cooking.
Grease a 9x13” casserole dish with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, Minute rice, and one can of water. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are incorporated.
Pour the mixture into the greased casserole dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
Place the chicken breasts over the rice mixture, ensuring they are evenly spaced for even cooking.
Sprinkle the Lipton onion soup mix evenly over the chicken breasts. This adds a burst of flavor!
Dot the top with butter, which will melt and add richness as it cooks.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C). Check for doneness to ensure a safe and delicious meal.
Notes
For added flavor, consider using seasoned chicken breasts or adding your favorite herbs and spices to the dish before baking.
