I did this on Sat night but have been waiting to post because I didn't want to interrupt the string of posts GRF was making of his weekend activities...

Normally I'll cook M-F and we go out Sat. During CFB season, I'm in front of the TV all day Sat so we go out on Fri instead and I cook on Sat. This allows me to do some dishes that take a little longer than is practical to try to do after work during the week. But longer doesn't necessarily mean more complicated, more often just a longer cook time. Sometimes they're even simpler...

Like this one. Chicken and rice casserole. Very easy yet delicious. About 10 mins prep and 1 hour cook.

Take...

1 1/2 cups uncooked long grain white rice
1 can Campbells cream of mushroom soup (variety with roasted garlic recommended)
1 can chicken broth (you can use water in a pinch but broth is better)
1 jar or can of sliced mushrooms, drained; I used shiitake but any variety will work (optional but recommended)
2 to 3 Tbsp diced green chiles (optional depending on personal taste)
Salt, pepper, and paprika to taste, maybe about a tsp each

...and mix them together in a casserole dish.

Top with boneless & skinless chicken thighs or breasts (I used thighs).

Sprinkle a layer of paprika and black pepper over the chicken.

Sprinkle a layer of ground parmesan cheese over the top (optional).

Cover with foil (or casserole dish lid) and bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes. Uncover and cook for another 15 minutes to reduce extra liquid and brown the top. Let sit a few minutes and serve.

This is the prepped casserole ready to be covered and put in the oven:

This is after the 45 minutes cooking while covered:

And this is the final result, after the 15 minutes uncovered cooking:

It was really good and everybody loved it. There were no leftovers...
