Creamy Chicken And Mushroom Rice Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the broth in a medium saucepan until simmering.
• Melt the butter in an oven-safe braiser (or large cast-iron skillet with a lid or 4-quart saute pan with a lid) over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and mushrooms, tossing to coat in the butter, and cook, stirring once or twice, until golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the sherry, allowing the pan to deglaze. Add the rice and allow it to toast and soak in the flavors of the pan. Add about 4 cups of the hot broth to the pan. Add the thyme and bay leaf. Cover the braiser and place it in the oven to bake until the rice is almost cooked, 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the coriander, salt and pepper. Brush the chicken with the olive oil, then dust all over with the seasoning. Set aside.
• Fluff the rice with a fork and check on doneness. It should still have some chew with some grains just starting to pop open. Stir in the cranberries. Add the remaining hot broth to keep the dish brothy. Add the chicken breasts to the braiser, laying them at an angle so that most of the chicken is submerged in the rice. Shingle the lemon slices in between the chicken breasts. Cover and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Uncover and continue to cook until the chicken registers an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about another 10 minutes. Top with the parsley or thyme before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a casserole dish and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until beginning to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until golden, about 4 minutes.
• Sprinkle the chicken liberally with salt and pepper. Push the onions and mushrooms to the side of the skillet, add the chicken skin-side down and and cook until the skin is browned, about 4 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate.
• Stir the rice into the onion and mushroom mixture and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the wine, bring to simmer and simmer for 1 minute. Stir in the soup and 1 1/2 cans of water and bring to a simmer.
• Pour the rice mixture into the buttered casserole dish. Place the chicken on top skin-side up and cover with a lid or foil. Bake, stirring in more water 1/2 cup at a time if the casserole starts to dry out, until the rice is tender, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium. Add mushrooms and shallots and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until mushrooms are tender and browned, 10 minutes. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil and the flour. Stir to combine and cook 1 minute.
• Add chicken broth, whisking constantly, and bring to a boil. Add chicken and rice and return to a simmer. Stir in peas, parsley, and sour cream; season with salt and pepper. Transfer mixture to an 8-inch square baking dish. Top with breadcrumbs.
• Bake until top is golden brown and mixture is warm throughout, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Put chicken pieces on a baking sheet and season generously with salt and pepper. Set aside. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Pour olive oil into a 4-quart enamelware Dutch oven or similar heavy pot and set over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring, until nicely browned, 8 to 10 minutes, then season with salt. Add chicken, thyme sprig and bay leaf, and continue to cook, stirring, for 2 minutes more.
• Add wine and simmer briskly until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
• Add rice and a large handful of mushrooms and stir to combine. (Reserve most of the mushrooms for garnish.) Add broth and bring to a simmer. Check broth for seasoning and adjust.
• Cover pot and cook for 10 minutes over medium heat. Transfer pot to oven and bake for 20 minutes. Finally, remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes off heat.
• While rice is baking, sauté remaining mushrooms: Melt butter in a large skillet over high heat. Add mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook, rapidly stirring, until they have softened and browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add peas, if using, and heat through. Turn off heat, then add reserved chopped thyme, the garlic and the parsley. Toss to coat well.
• Fluff rice, then top with sautéed mushrooms and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease sides and bottom of a casserole dish.
• Stir chicken, water, rice, cream of chicken soup, cream of celery soup, and cream of mushroom soup together in the prepared casserole dish; season with salt and pepper. Arrange butter evenly over the top of the chicken mixture.
• Bake in preheated oven until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through, 1 hour to 75 minutes. Cool 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a deep 9x13-inch (or larger) baking dish with cooking spray.
• Mix chicken stock, condensed soups, melted butter, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
• Spread rice on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with cubed chicken. Carefully pour stock-soup mixture over top, being careful it doesn't overflow. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over top to cover.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is cooked through and cheese is nicely browned, 60 to 75 minutes, depending on size of chicken cubes. Remove from the oven and cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
