Optional Additions
To customize this dish to your liking or to add more variety, you can include some of the following optional ingredients:
Shredded cheddar cheese – Sprinkle on top for an added cheesy finish.
Frozen vegetables – Carrots, peas, or corn are great options that can be added to make the dish even more hearty.
Diced chicken – If you want to add more chicken or use leftover cooked chicken, diced pieces can be mixed into the rice for extra protein.
Step-by-Step Instructions fo Forgotten Chicken and Rice
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the oven is at the right temperature when it’s time to bake your dish.
Step 2: Prepare the Baking Dish
Next, lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with butter. This will prevent the rice from sticking to the pan during baking and ensure a smooth, easy clean-up afterward.
Step 3: Mix the Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the following:
Cream of chicken soup
Cream of mushroom soup
Water (use the empty soup can to measure)
Instant rice
Stir these ingredients together until they’re well blended, and the rice is evenly distributed throughout the soup mixture.
Step 4: Assemble the Dish
