No Peek Chicken

In November 2018, I found this newspaper clipping shoved in a drawer and forgotten…so I know it’s an old recipe.  Then I made this post by putting the title in…  and, yesterday while getting the grocery list ready, I pulled up the post to get the ingredients.  To my surprise, I had a title.  That was it.  Just the title. …  Yeah, senior moment or brain fart.  Soooo, after locating the recipe this morning…. (and, yes, I felt so stupid)…. I decided to make this for dinner tonight.  The recipe reminds me of a “set it and forget it” meal.  Once you have prepared the casserole, you don’t need to do much else.

On a side note….and, to prove I’m human, last week I forgot to add the milk to the grocery list.  (Yup, loving these senior moments/brain farts !!)

Anyway, enjoy!   I added a side of vegetables with this casserole. 

No Peek Chicken

  • Servings: 6-8 people
  • Print

1 box of Uncle Ben’s Long Grain and Wild Rice with Herbs

1 can EACH of condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup and Cream of Celery Soup…. I make my own Cream Soup and you can obtain this recipe     HERE

1 soup can of Cold Water

1 teaspoon Parsley Flakes

a dash of Curry Powder

6 – 8 pieces of Chicken  (I had 10 drumsticks, so that’s what I used)

1 package of Onion Soup Mix….I make my own Dry Onion Soup Mix and you can obtain this recipe     HERE

butter

tin foil

HOW TO:    preheat oven to 350°

Butter the casserole baking dish lightly.

In a bowl, mix together:  Rice along with the herb packet that comes in the rice box and you may want to add only half of the herb packet… The rice was a bit salty in my opinion, Soups, Water, Parsley and Curry Powder.  Stir until well blended.

Pour rice mixture into the buttered casserole dish.  Put drumsticks/chicken parts on top.  Sprinkle the onion soup mix over the top of the chicken and rice. Also, you may not need to use the whole onion soup mix.  I think the next time I make this, I will use about half of the onion soup mix packet.

Seal the casserole with foil.  Seal Well. Bake for 2 & 1/2 hours.  Do nothing else.  Dont open the oven.  Dont lift up the foil.  Just let it bake … and bake… and bake some more.

Serve with your favorite side of vegetables.
