Hey guys! If you haven’t noticed. I really kinda love creamy rice dishes. There is just somethin’ about’m that screams “comfort” to me. When I posted Mom’s Chicken and Rice last year. I had no idea that I would use that recipe as a base recipe for so many other creamy, comforting rice casseroles. I am SO happy that my mom made that dish for our family growing up because it has been the perfect start for so many of my other favorite dishes like Beef & Rice Taco Casserole and one of my newer recipes Cajun Chicken, Sausage, and Rice! All of these dishes are super popular on this lil ol’ blog, so if this is your first time here you just have got to give’m a try! I realized that I haven’t done very many “Buffalo Chicken” recipes on here a few weeks ago. Fact: I actually LOVE Buffalo Chicken. It’s almost always my go-to when we are out for dinner. I do have a Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Wrap posted that is seriously yummy, but I wanted to share something a little family dinner friendly. If you’ve made the other rice casseroles which I hope you have, you’ll also know that these rice casseroles are SUPER easy to throw together any night of the week. They do require a longer cooking time than most of my recipes, but it takes just minutes to throw together and pop into the oven. You can use that hour to make a scrumptious side dish or just spend some time with the family. I can’t tell you how many times these rice casseroles have saved my butt on busier evenings. If you love Buffalo Chicken… You’ll love this! I promise. Make this, y’all and make it soon!
Also, it’s halloween weekend! Happy Halloween! I’ll be honest I’m not very good at planning ahead and getting “themed” food out. I really do apologize. I am trying to get better and hopefully someday soon I will, but sadly, not today. It does have a orange-y tint from the buffalo sauce.. so that’s kind of the same thing as a pumpkin which equals halloween basically, right? I’ll go with that so I feel better and more organized with life and this here blog.
I am TRYING to prepare for the Holiday season coming up and working on some super yummy recipes.
I have two questions for you today.
1. Would you like to see ONLY lightened up Holiday Dishes? Or do you mind a splurge for special dinners? and If so, would you like to see some splurge-y holiday dishes on here?
2. What dish would you like to see most? potatoes, desserts, vegetables, corn.. etc
If you’d kindly comment your answers. I’d LOVE to read them and take notes.
Okay, I’ve asked enough of you.. LET’S GET IN THE KITCHEN!
Finely chop 2 stalks of celery. It doesn’t need to be perfect. (As you can see.. Mine isn’t!)
Same for a yellow onion.. (the not-so-perfect rule still applies)
Spray a skillet with some cooking spray and sauté it up until softened.
Just like this!
Now add all these ingredients to a casserole dish. (I spared you a photo of raw chicken cut up into bite size pieces. It’s just not appetizing. Ha! I also forgot to take the photo.) So you’ll add about 2 lbs raw chicken pieces, the celery and onions, 1 packet of ranch dressing seasoning mix, a can o’ cream of chicken or celery soup, 1 cup of long grain rice (not instant), and 3-4 tbs of Hot Wing SAAAAAUCE! (I highly recommend using the Frank’s Buffalo Hot Wing Sauce instead of just plain ol’ Hot Sauce… It’s MUCH BETTER!)
If you’re not a fan of the cream of chicken/celery soup in the can or just don’t happen to have any on hand and want to make this asap you can make a quick version and all you need is a few extra minutes, a small sauce pan, milk, flour, chicken broth, and a few dried spices. Check out that recipe here.
Don’t forget 1 cup of chicken broth!
Side note: You can also use water if you can’t find the chicken broth in your pantry. This happens to me more often than not.
Stir it all up reeeally, really good!
Now, you know from my other rice casserole recipes how much I stress the use of tin foil to cover your casserole dish. (even if your dish has a lid!) Cover it tightly, y’all. Please. It’ll just make it easier on yourself. I promise.
Then, place it in a preheated 375 degree oven for an hour or until rice is completely cooked. (If using brown rice it may take longer to cook all the way through)
Aaaaaand, Here it is! It doesn’t look like much. Oh man, it’s really good though. I’ve made this twice in just the last week because Eric is obsessed with it. (He LOVES Buffalo Chicken flavor)
“Fluff” it up with a fork. It’s not lookin’ like much yet, I know…
Alright, so this was an after thought. The third time I made it I wanted some cheesy to add to my creamy just for something different. It’s PERFECTLY delicious all on it’s own, but I added some cheddar to make it even better. It’s definitely not necessary if you’re not feelin’ like spendin’ a few extra calories on it. I simply sprinkled the cheddar on top of the casserole while still in the dish and then covered it again the tin foil for about 5-ish minutes to let the cheddar melt. I could have popped it back in the oven, but I didn’t want the rice to over cook so I didn’t. Do it this way, add it separately, or don’t do it at all. Either way, you’ll love this dish!
Chop up some green onions for a fresh garnish if ya want’a! It makes it perdy and it makes it extra yummy.
Plop a big serving in a bowl and you are good to go!
Mmmm.. seriously this is the best of two worlds. creamy rice casserole world + buffalo chicken world.
Grab your fork and dig in, y’all.
I hope you love this as much as we do! Let me know if ya make it, guys. I really think you should make it, like, tonight.
With love from my kitchen to yours,
Star

One of our favorite recipes of yours! We make this often. So delicious and easy to make. Itās a big hit with my husband.
(Instagram- wwmichele7)
This is hands down favorite recipe!! It is great leftover as well ā¤ļø IG: kimmygrant13
This is our favorite meal! I always have all the ingredients on hand so I can always whip it up and pretty much have the recipe memorized. My 15 year old son ask for it anywhere he goes and I have to send people the recipe. Itās simply the best and so easy! @strongerjessica on instagram
So yummy! Made this tonight with a little extra Buffalo sauce and it was sooooo good! Will be making this again!
I made the Buffalo chicken and rice today and realized when I took it out of the oven that I had forgotten to add the can of soup. I quickly added it and stirred it well. I let it sit awhile to absorb the extra liquid and it was fabulous! The whole recipe was easy, it was delicious and I will definitely be making this again!
My family does not like anything creamy and I made the basic chicken and rice recipe and they said they like the flavor but not the consistency (creaminess). We are very big on buffalo so I figured I’d try this version. If I leave out the “cream of” soup, can I replace it with another can of broth? Or will that be too much liquid?
Very easy to make and so delicious!
I’m so happy you enjoyed!
So I went crazy and meal prepped the first Sunday in October. This was one of the meals I made, I actually made two pans of it. I followed the recipe as written and it was so incredibly good. I might be drooling while typing this. I had this for leftovers for two or three days and I was still so bummed when it was gone. So bummed, in fact, that I made it again the following Sunday. No shame in my game. I would eat this every single day if I didn’t have to cook for my household as well. Even my mother ate this and she is always telling me she can’t eat things with Frank’s Red Hot… Homegirl ate an entire pan in three days. You will not regret making this!
I am so happy you enjoyed it so much!! Thanks for stopping by to leave such a nice comment.<3
Hi there!
Can you leave out the ranch packet or is there something you can substitute for it? I donāt care for ranch but the rest of this looks so yummy. Thanks!
Hey Karrie! I think leaving it out would be totally fine. If anything just add a bit of salt and pepper and/or garlic powder to give it some flavor without the ranch seasoning.
Hi there, this is AMAZING! Wondering if you have ever experimented with cooked ground chicken vs. chunked raw chicken? I love the meat texture of the Taco Rice Casserole and wondering if the cooked ground meat method can be applied to this dish.
Thanks!
Hi Haley! I’m so happy you enjoy! I haven’t tried the cooked ground chicken in this recipe. It certainly could work, but it MIGHT taste a little on the dry side. Let me know if you give it a go!
Hi! I gave it a go tonight with ground chicken and it turned out great! I just slightly browned it ahead of time before mixing it in.
Can’t wait to try this! Have you ever made in a crockpot?
I haven’t. Sorry! Let me know if you do! It should totally work, but I just don’t have the correct time to give ya.
If your worried about foil on food place a piece of parchment paper then foil
OMG, Star, this recipe is amazing!! I just made this tonight and my husband and I absolutely loved it!! Iām so happy that I found your website. I am have been a WW member for almost 3 years and was getting bored with the same old recipes. Your recipes are delicious, low in points, and do not disappoint.
Hi Sherry!! thanks so much!!! I’m so happy you found me to and are loving the recipes! Thanks for stopping by to let me know. I really appreciate it!
Hi!!! This sounds yummy!!! Have you tried it with cauliflower rice?? I plugged it in the WW app recipe builder and it came up 6 points…not sure why.
I make this every weekend to take for lunch all week. Sometimes, the rice comes out crunchy and I can’t figure out why. I use the long grain rice, I never deviate from the recipe (except maybe sometimes I get out of control on the hot sauce. ha ha) Any idea why I’m getting crunchy rice some of the time?
Hey Elizabeth! I’m not too sure because this doesn’t happen for me, but I have seen a few people have this problem. Drives me a little nuts that I can’t figure out what went wrong especially when the recipe is followed. I’m going to test this recipe again using a little more liquid maybe that would help the problem completely! Thanks for asking. I wish I had a better answer.
Could you make this ahead like the night before and then refrigerate and bake it for dinner the next day?
So easy to make and so, so good! I think this is my new favorite recipe!
so happy you enjoy, Megan!
This is my second recipe if yours that Iāve made (Taco Rice last week). Iām officially obsessed! This was so good and cooked perfectly following the directions. Thank you for creating such family friendly comfort food! This inspired me and Iām going to try this idea aāla Chicken Saisage Jambalaya Bake (unless you want to)!? āŗļø
OMG! This was so good, made it last night for the first time. We all loved it, my roommate that made it added more Frank’s and my mouth was on FIRE! But, it was so delish! We had a side of corn. I think next time some blue cheese or blue cheese dressing will have to be added. Thanks for the all the recipes. You are one of my favorite go-to sites for this WW journey!
My boyfriend requests this meal every week so he can take the leftovers for lunch every day. Heās OBSESSED.
This smelled so great in the oven but when I took it out, it was very soupy – what did I do wrong? used all the same ingredients. Itās back in the oven for 20 minutes to see if that helps.
Iām probably the only one making it in the middle of summer.
Hi there! Was the rice cooked when you took it out? if it was Usually if you just mix it up and let it sit the “soupiness” will kind of mix in and set. If the rice wasn’t cooked. It probably just needed the extra time. I hope that helps and that you enjoyed!
It just needs more time. I realized after I had used brown rice. An extra half hour and it was delicious and done! Thanks for the reply and all the great recipes!! We love poor manās meal and enjoyed cowboy meal just last week.
Hi. I love this recipe. However, I have a question. i added it to the recipe builder and i get 6 points per serving??? help! š
Hi! Do you think this could be made with cauliflower rice instead of the uncle bens if you are trying to cut carbs? Your recipes are delish! Love following you!
This was amazing. My boyfriend who is a relatively picky eater told me I could make this any time I want. thank you for the this one! Your recipes are turning me into a pretty good cook!

Oops I used Frank’s red hot original rather than the wing sauce. Think it matters?
It kind of depends on your taste buds as far as spice it won’t matter, but the taste might not be as “buffalo chicken” as you might be expecting. I hope it worked out!

Just made this last night and loved it. Fiance loved it too! Very comfort-foody, and was obsessed with the spice level. I love Frank’s so that was great. I didn’t add any cheese at the end. When I calculated this in recipe builder via WW, I actually got it to 2 Freestyle Points per serving (out of 6 servings). I haven’t figured out how that happened but I did count everything accurately, based on my ingredients I used. 2 points, or 4… I really love this dish.

Iām making this as we speak & I plugged the recipe into the calculator & I get 6 feeestyle points per serving, not 4. Iām also making the white chicken chili recipe for the week & the calculator tells me itās 3 points not 2. What products did you use, as I followed your recipes exactly.
I use the Recipe Builder on the Weight Watchers App or Website to calculate all the points. They can add up differently if just calculating the nutritional info provided because that includes all zero point items.

Hi! I have read your blog for a while but haven’t made anything until last night. This recipe was SO delicious! I only had about 1.25 lbs of chicken breast, so I filled out the rest with a little extra chopped onion and about 3/4 cup of peas (which didn’t add any extra points). It was too spicy for my kids but my husband and I LOVED this!! I love your site and I especially love that you give an exact measurement for the serving (for example, 1 1/4 cups), so this way I don’t have to guess. Thanks again for such a yummy meal idea–can’t wait to try more of your recipes!
SO happy you and your husband enjoyed!! Thanks for reading along! Let me know what others you try! (Sorry it was a bit spicy for the kids. It’s too spicy for Pep too… I gotta have some spiciness every once and awhile! haha!)

Thank you!

This is seriously sooo yummy! And my boyfriend liked it so much he asked to take it to work for lunch, and eat it cold. Coming from the guy who doesnt likes everything full fat and who despises leftovers, loving this says a lot. I have only made a few of your recipes so far ( this one, chicken french dips, the biscuit and gravy one, and another breakfast cassarole one) but now im going to try a lot more. Thank you for the WW friendly deliciousness!

i wonder if you could make this in the instant pot?
I’m sure you can! I don’t have an Instant Pot yet so I’m not sure of the times/if it would need more liquid.

I haven’t tried this specific one, but i’ve frozen my other chicken and rice dishes and they froze and reheated well!

First I would like to say how much I love your recipes! They are easy to make and so tasty! However, I had a hard time making this casserole last night. The casserole was in for almost 2 hours and wrapped tightly with tinfoil, yet the rice (long grain) was not cooked. I am not sure what I need to do differently. It did have a great taste though š
I am so happy you enjoy the recipes! Thank you so much. Honestly, I’m a little stumped myself. You’re sure you added the one cup of chicken broth in with the mixture as well? Not enough liquid can result in the rice not cooking and if you did that and covered tightly with foil. I’m honestly not too sure! It was long grain (not instant rice) too? I’m so sorry it didn’t turn out right for ya!
I’ve noticed this with mine too – mine does end up cooked (eventually) but it takes 2 hours, no exaggeration.
Are you cooking the celery up before putting it in the casserole and covering tightly with foil (not a casserole dish lid)?
Funny, I was just reading through your comments to find an answer to how much longer you should cook if using brown rice? It has been in for an hour and 15 minutes and the rice is still super crunchy. Have other people been using white rice and it still takes 2 hours?
It definitely should only take one hour using long grain white rice. If using brown rice- use some extra liquid about a half cup should do and leave it in for extra 10-15 minutes.

I would definitely stick to lightened-up recipes if I were you. You can find the splurge recipes anywhere. Sure, I might have a cookie or 2, but I don’t see the holidays as a reason to regress on the progress I’ve made on my weight loss and healthy lifestyle.
Thanks for the input!

I think you should post both lightened up and splurge recipes with the ww points! especially desserts! We’re all likely to have/want a cheat around the holidays, so we can embrace it and stay accountable.

I prefer your lightened up recipes as I am shooting for my Life Time (this time) Membership. My non-WW family absolutely loves every one of the recipes I have made of yours and no need to change back now! LOL If you share some non-lightened up recipes, can you include the SP’s? That way I’ll decide if it’s worth the splurge. I just printed out your Turkey Po’ Boy Recipe. Even though it’s 15 SP’s….I will make it work for that day. Thank you for your wonderful recipes and all the hard work you put in to make them for us.

I’d prefer lightened up receipes. I love your blog and I am on weight watchers and it makes my life so much easier to come here once a week and make my meal plan from whatever I think looks good on here!!
question though! I see you say don’t use the instant minute rice. Can you tell me why? They have the same nutrition value as Bens rice but I prefer the taste of the minute. Does it change points to use the minute?
Minute rice doesn’t cook the same in the casseroles from my experience, but I’ve had some people say they’ve had success with it. And thank you for the input! I’m so happy my recipes help your weight loss journey

I am obsessed with your chicken and rice and now THIS??? I am arguably equally obsessed with Buffalo chicken things. I may have to save up two days of points and…eat the whole pan myself?

Would love to see lightened up holiday recipes. And you would be in a bonus round if there were a few appetizers to take to those parties where you know there will be absolutely nothing diet friendly…and if it’s not too much to ask, some figure friendly desserts would be heaven!!!

I just want to tell you how much I enjoy getting your recipe emails, I really look forward to them and every one has turned out great! Just finished dinner with the buffalo chicken bake – sooo yummy, especially on a cold evening as we await our trick or treaters! I’m trying to lose weight, but the hubby likes them too! Thank you!!!

So happy you found me! I hope you enjoy!

I would enjoy lightened up dishes. Your blog is one of the only places that can come and get quality weight watchers recipes that the rest of the family enjoy as well, I would love to see potato dishes and desserts. (Well, because potatoes. Amiright?) And desserts that actually feel worthy of the holidays and are still WW friendly are what my dreams are made of.

I love that you lighten up these recipes and provide the smart points for them! So keep that coming. There are enough āfully loadedā recipes out there to splurge on. Also dessert options that utilize chocolate, cheesecake, etc that are lightened up would be great as long as they donāt have weird things in them like avocado or black beans. Thank you!! Your blog and IG is fabulous!!

This looks SO delicious! I added it to my menu for this week! I enjoy coming to your blog for lightened up recipes so holiday dishes that are lightened up would be my first choice over the more splurge-y options. In terms of l dishes I’d like to see, if you’re focusing on holiday, a way to lighten up the originals but still taste delicious (mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole) would be fun. I always love a good dessert as well but I know you’re more into the savory dishes! My favorite thing about your recipes is that I can make them and 99% of the time, the entire family will devour it. So, family friendly, tasty, easy dishes are what I love. In other words, keep doing what you’re doing! š

Not sure if I missed this, I see the serving size is 1 1/4 cups. Does the dish make 6 servings?

Lightened up would be my interest though I will be doing a mixture. Sides and desserts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Just stumbled onto your blog recently and couldn’t be happier. as your recipes are just the kind I’ve been looking for. To answer your questions, any holiday recipes, especially potato dishes and desserts ( bar cookies). Great blog by the way!

I would like to try anything you would like to lighten up for the holidays. I will definitely try them. Thanks for always being so sweet.

I canāt wait to try this! I love all your chicken and rice recipes. As far as your questions, I prefer the lightened up, butās it is your blog so postbothif you want! I would request that WW points are the splurge recipes too though. Main dishes are my main search, but sides and a few desserts are good too. Lightened up versions of classics would be awesome!

A lightened up recipe would be better for me but I think the 80-20 food plan works too.
I think a vegetable soup would go along with one of your splurge-y recipes.

To answer your questions:
1 – I’d love to see an occasional splurge recipe … I’m in the food makes holidays special but not every day is a holiday camp!
2 – anything you want to come up with!
Now, a question for you. Have you tried freezing any of your rice casserole dishes? If so…any special instructions for reheating? I’d love to prepare this and then put some in the freezer for another time!
