This was just an experiment that fortunately came out right. The flavor was really good, even though it wasn't the prettiest thing when we were making it.
Ingredients:
-chicken breasts
-one can of cream of mushroom soup
-Zataran's dirty rice
-water and a dash of olive oil
We also had left over beans and corn from the vegetable soup so I threw that in as well. On the stove we heated up the rice in a pot with a cup or two of water, some olive oil and the cream of mushroom soup. We only left it on for about 5 minutes, just to make the rice tender. We also threw in those vegetables I mentioned. This made a brown sludgy soup that slightly terrified Dan. He was ready to order in sushi but I told him to have no fear!
We poured the "sludge" into a baking dish and put the chicken breasts on top with some seasoning (salt, pepper, some parsley). I baked it at 375 degrees for about 40 minutes. It turns out... it was very good! The chicken cooked perfectly, and the soup kept it nice and moist. The rice also cooked perfectly and had a great kick to it.
What's really great is that it's so easy to prepare this dish. You whip it together and toss it in the oven. Now all we have to do is get around to washing those dishes...
