When I was growing up, my Mom’s Chicken and Rice Casserole was an absolute family favorite in our home. We couldn’t wait for mom to make Chicken and Rice! It’s probably one of the most simple recipes out there, but she made it very seldom. I think because she wanted to keep it special. Also, My dad was the definition of a Midwestern Meal lover/eater- “Meat & Potatoes.” and to be more clear, red meat and potatoes. I don’t recall many meals having chicken or turkey, but he sure loved this one. When I was older and began sharing the cooking responsibilities for the family, I remember hiding ground turkey in meals in attempt to fool him, and often I did… I think. Eric thought that I was such a terrible person for fibbin’ to him about the ground beef actually being ground turkey. But I’m sure he probably knew deep down and didn’t care, because I made sure it was delicious. I miss that stubborn man like crazy.
This is actually a recipe form my Gramma Lois, possibly even my Great Grandma, Hattie, which I found out later while when telling my mom I had lightened it up a bit in order to make it more Weight Watchers Friendly. My mom remembers growing up and fighting with her brothers over the “crispy edges” of the rice that formed in the corners while cooking in the oven. Unfortunately, in the lightened up version I’ve lost those crispy corners a bit, because I’m guessing those corners were in fact fat that drained off the bone-in chicken. I’ve decided I’m also going to post the original, not-so-healthy recipe later on, because it’s too good too pass up. My lighter calorie version sure hits the spot though! Of course, I had to bring my mom a couple helpings to make sure that it passed the test. She said it tastes just like how she remembers it, despite lacking those dang delicious crunchy corners of rice!
You might look at the photograph and think it looks kind of plain and simple. And that’s the thing- it really is pretty plain and simple, but it’s so good! I’ve tried to add some more vegetables into this, but either they don’t cook correctly, or the rice doesn’t cook just right. The ratio is perfect, so I suggest steaming or roasting some veggies of your choice on the side to complete the meal. I grew up on a can of green beans on the side with this dish, so that’s my favorite way to eat it. Sometimes out of the can tastes just perfect!
Here’s what happens in the kitchen:
Cut up the chicken into uniform small pieces.
Grab a big bowl and add all the ingredients… chicken, can of soup, a can of water, rice (just regular old White Rice – NOT Minute or Instant Rice), and the packet of french onion mix.
Mix together well until combined.
Pour mixture into a lightly sprayed casserole dish.
Cover with aluminum foil, and pop it into a 350 degree oven for 1 hour.
You MUST cover tightly with aluminum foil in order for the rice to cook properly.
It’ll look something like this. Simple… but OH SO DELICIOUS!
Scoop it up on a plate with some roasted veggies or my personal favorite, a can of green beans!
Salt & Pepper, if desired.
With love from my kitchen to yours,

Loved this one! It is a staple in our house!
We literally make this meal every single week! It is so good + so easy after a long day at work! It also reheats wonderfully for lunches!! Thanks Star for such a great recipe!
I’m so happy you enjoy it, Sam! Thanks so much for stopping back by to let me know. =)
This is my first time making one of your recipes! I gotta say it was a hit!!! I did use cream of celery, but will totally use cream of chicken next time to compare. It will be added to my regular rotations. It only took about 30 minutes to get it into to oven and was perfect after 1 hour of cooking. I may add breadcrumbs for my hubby who wanted something a little crunchy in there. Thanks Star!!! BTW, my sister is Starr with two r’s, lol
I am an adult picky eater and this dish is simple and delicious! So glad I tried it!!
This was SO easy to make and tasted like one of my childhood favorites! Thank you, Star, for all you do in mastering these tasty recipes for us. The serving size is generous so it felt like such a hearty, WW meal 🙂 can’t wait to have the leftovers this week!!
This is my favorite skinyishdish recipe! We make this almost weekly! The onion soup mix takes it to the next level!!

I made this recipe after seeing the Top 25 Recipes of 2020 Instagram post. The first bite made me cry. My beloved grandmother died in 2015 and this tasted just like her chicken and rice. I think my husband thought I had lost it! He and the kids loved it as much as I did. I have now made it with Cream of Chicken and Cream of Celery and it is great both ways. I am really thankful that I found this recipe. It will always put a smile on my face every time I make it.
This makes me smile so big. I’m so happy you enjoy it and it brings back memories for you.
This is one of our favorites!
@tcondoleon
This recipe is so simple, but full of flavor! It reheats well too, so I often meal prep this for lunches.
Thank you, Jess!! I know your love for this one runs deep. haha!!
So good! And so easy to put together with pantry staples. We had it tonight with peas, my favorite! Instagram- @undertakingww
I made this tonight for dinner. What a hit!!! Smelled and tasted amazing!
So easy and so delicious!! Such a fast, easy, weeknight meal!! Highly recommend!
Excellent dish! Made it yesterday for lunch (Super Bowl Sunday), and we enjoyed it twice (lunch AND dinner). My kiddos liked it as well. I will try your ham/broccoli casserole, next! This is the third or fourth dish of yours we have enjoyed with just enough left overs for lunch the next day 🙂 Thank you, Starr.!
So happy yall enjoyed it, Kristin!
So creamy and delicious, and easy as pie.
5 out of 5. Easy to throw together. Doesn’t need any other flavoring either. I double foiled this and added a touch more water to ensure the rice fully cooked. It created a creamy sauce that was delicious. Had green beans on the side. Great for quick family dinner. More like this please Star!!
This was so good! I was scrolling through your recipes and this one made me smile. When I was little, my mom would make a similar recipe. It’s a great dish for those cold days and it was a hit with my husband. I’m so glad I tried it! Thank you for sharing your recipes and the stories!
I’m so happy you enjoy the recipes and the stories, Darci. =)
First meal I made of yours a few weeks ago when I started WW. I googled chicken and rice WW and crossed my fingers. Low and behold this gem or a recipe was there. It did take about double the time to bake, my chicken wasn’t cooked and my rice was still crunchy at an hour. I just stuck it back in and we fed the kids something else and put them to sleep. It was perfect when we finished that up. We loved it and had to leftovers the next night. Both my husband, toddler and I loved it! It was so good and felt soooo guilty. Following you is making WW feel like an indulgence!
It’s so good, so easy, and economical!
Can i make this ahead of time and freeze it?
I haven’t tried freezing this recipe, sorry
Super easy and super delicious! It sure didn’t last long!! Thanks for sharing this tasty concoction!
Soooo easy & soooo good! Such a cozy, good meal! I’ve made this many times & it never disappoints!
I’ve made this multiple times and my whole family loves it.
I was the comment on it taking double time to cook. I meant to add I put it in a deep, smaller casserole dish though. Which probably led to this!
This is soooooo good! One of your best and that’s saying something because I’ve loved everything I’ve tried.
Has anyone tried this recipe with brown rice? Does it make any difference?
Hi Molly! I haven’t tried this recipe personally with brown rice yet, but brown rice cooks differently than white rice. It will need a lot more liquid and can take anywhere from 20-40 minutes longer in rice casseroles in the oven.
I’m making this for the second time in 4 days.
Please don’t judge me……
Love all your recipes!
I would never judge you for such things! I love mom’s chicken and rice!!
It sounds yum, have you ever tried this in an instant pot? I may have to do it!
Is this made in square pan or 9 x 13??
9×13 casserole dish is what I use!
This is a favorite in our family but I’m wondering how it would turn out in the Instant Pot? Have you tried it?
How do I add and track to my ww app?
I made this last night and it was soooo delicious, not to mention so EASY to throw together! Another favorite from your collection has been added to our regular menu! Thank you!
I love your recipe’s but have trouble pinning them to Pinterest. When I click on the P to pin, it doesn’t do anything. Some times it works, some times not. Does anyone else have this issue?
Hi Jill! A few weeks back someone commented saying that they were having trouble too. I went ahead and tried to pin things myself and everything worked just fine and since it was just the one person who said something I thought maybe it was just a fluke. Now that you’ve also let me know. I will for sure look into this further and make sure it’s not a glitch! Thank you so much for letting me know.
I did get the crusty edge around pan. The only thing i did different was i added 2 pats of butter and doubled the foil.
It was delicious
Thank you for a great recipe
Yes. I can’t even find the symbol to pin
One of my husband’s favorite meals is chicken and rice. I had never made it before so I went looking for a recipe and yours popper up. Ive made other recipes of yours before so I knew you wouldn’t let me down 😉 and it was winner! Adding it to the monthly meal list!
am I missing something with the “10.5 Oz can of water” because I am feeling a little stumped!
Hi Chelsea! I wrote this recipe basically exactly how my mom made it which means that the “10.5 oz” can of water is using the can of cream of chicken to measure the water out. I will definitely clarify that in the recipe! I never really thought about how it could be confusing, but definitely see how it is. I hope you enjoy!
This is baking up in my oven right now and I’m starting to be able to smell it! Yum! I used cream of mushroom soup and added a can of mushrooms and a couple of diced up carrots to the mix. It’s just me in my house (and a beagle) and I’m a nurse. I try to make a big meal with leftovers for me to heat up and have for lunch on my work day. I can’t wait to give this a try!
Could I put ingredients together the night before so all I have to do is pop it in the oven after work?
Can you please link the casserole dish you used? My rice did not cook AT ALL and I used a ceramic dish. I’m hoping to give it one more try.
Love this dish! Can it be doubled?
I would use a little extra water probably about 1/2 cup and it might need some extra time!
Made this last night for dinner and my fiance said that he thinks this is one of his new favorites! I have been trying a lot of new recipes since joining Weight Watchers 6 weeks ago and this has honestly been one of the easiest dishes I have made! I was surprised that 1 serving was only 3 points (and that was me adding and additional 1/2 cup of rice). Plus, I am always a big fan of meals that I can get a leftover lunch for the next day!
Just made this tonight. Easy and delicious. I paired it with a nice salad.
Have you ever tried this with a different “cream of” soup? Celery maybe or mushroom? I love every recipe of yours I’ve ever made and I’m excited to try this one
You can totally use cream of mushroom or cream of celery! I hope you love it!
This was a total hit tonight! Loved how it’s comfort food without all the extra point.
Is there a certain brand of white rice you prefer to use, that’s lower in points? I used Uncle Ben’s but it made mine 5 freestyle points per serving instead of 4.
This recipe is delicious and easy to make! It’s a family favorite!
So happy you enjoy, Amy! Thanks so much for letting me know!
Have you ever doubled this recipe? My kids LOVE it and always want seconds or thirds haha. What do you think the cook time might be? Thanks!
Cn this be made with minute rice?
Hi Sarah, no it can’t. If you use minute rice it will turn to mush.
I have made this several times and after cooking as the recipe directs the rice is still a little hard and it looks burnt/dry on the edges? Can you suggest anything to help?
try adding an extra half cup of chicken broth or water. That should help a bit!
I tried this recipe tonight, and my husband and I loved it, but the onion soup mix was a little strong for us. Neither one of us cares for onion. Can you recommend something to replace the soup mix? Thank you!
I’m glad you liked it! I’d just use some spices that you do enjoy- It doesn’t need to be a soup mix.

Hello! What are your thoughts on adding frozen peas to the mix before baking? Excited to try this! Thanks!
They may get mushy because it’s a pretty long cook time. I would add them after it’s done, personally. Hope you love it!

My family loved this, even my picky 9 year-old. I used brown rice and it turned out great!
Good to hear! Thanks so much for letting me know!

My husband LOVED this. In fact, when he tried it, his response was “Holy S***! That is good.” I made it last week for lunches, and he just asked when we can have it again because he can’t stop thinking about it.
Haha! So happy to hear he enjoyed this!!

Hi. I bought uncle Ben’s instant rice by mistake. If I use that will the recipe still come out OK?
Some people have used instant rice and said that it turned out just fine, but I have always had a tough time with the instant rice in my personal experience. I hope it works!

Omg! I was so excited to try this but my rice turned out crunchy what on earth did I do wrong?! ♀️
Did you cover your casserole dish tightly with foil?
I had the same issue. Mine has been in the oven for an hour and a half with tight foil

I’m only cooking for one and thinking about halving this recipe tonight. Have you ever tried? Do you think the cook time would be less? Thanks!
I have not tried halving this recipe. I’m sorry! I do know rice can be a little finicky when not using exact amounts. So I hope it worked out for ya! I do know people have frozen this and enjoyed it reheated. Hope you enjoyed!

Has anyone tried to convert this to an instant pot recipe? Just wondering if this would be possible! 🙂
I don’t have a instant pot. I’m just not one to have many appliances. I feel like I have seen a couple people do it in the instant pot and had success! Enjoy!

Is the rice plain long grain? Not minute right?
Yes long grain white rice, not minute rice

If I use brown rice instead of white do I need to cook it longer?
I haven’t tried it with brown rice, but you shouldn’t need to. I’ve seen other people substitute it with different rice. Just to be sure when the hour is up take a tiny spoonful and test it out. If it still seems like it has a bite pop it in for a bit longer. I hope you enjoy!

I have Lipton Beefy Onion soup mix instead of plain Onion Soup mix. Have you ever used this? Think it will substitute ok?
I’ve never used it in anything. so I can’t say with confidence what it would taste like, but I assume it would taste just fine!

This is the third recipe that I have tried from your site and I have loved all of them. I wasn’t sure about the onion soup with the chicken, I have only used it in beef recipes, but – wow! It was really good. I am searching the archives for more to try. Thank you!

I have not, but other people have tried different types of rices! I’m sure it would taste delicious and as long as you use the same quantities it should bake up the same!

Do you think I could add carrots to the mix before putting it in the oven and have it cook all together? I have a 2 year old and she is super picky when it comes to vegetables, so I have to hide/mix things together. She will not so willingly eat veggies on the side. I might just add some baby spinach at the end and mix until wilted. I cant wait to try this!
I’m sure it would be okay, maybe add a little extra water!

Would this work with shredded chicken already cooked??
I have never tried it that way because my guess would be that the chicken would dry out being in the oven for a hour. Baking the chicken along with all the rice and seasoning ensures super moist and flavorful chicken!

Can you make this in the crockpot?

How do I track this on the app?
Hi there! You can either use the Recipe Builder on the app and input all ingredients to save or you can do a “quick add” and add it that way!

Hi! Do you think this would freeze well? If I mixed all the ingredients and froze?
Hi Ashley! I’ll admit I have not had a chance to test this one in the freezer yet because it goes way too fast in this house. It more than likely will, you may need to add a touch of chicken broth when reheating. I will make a note to freeze a batch super soon!

Simple ingredients, easy prep, hands-off cooking, and absolutely DELICIOUS. I saw a few other reviews mention variances in the cook time, but ours came out perfect following Star’s directions exactly. The small amount of leftovers we had also warmed up nicely the next day. I’m already being asked when this is showing up on the dinner table again!
This is soooo good!! I follow you on IG which is what led me to your blog, and this is the first recipe I’ve tried of yours. It was fantastic! I tweaked it just a bit with low fat soup instead of fat free, and used boneless, skinless chicken thighs instead of breasts. It still worked out to 6 SP for 1/6 of a serving- I ate more though cause it was so darn good! Thanks so much for the recipe. It’ll be a regular in my house!
I’m so happy to see that chicken thighs work out to be the same points! I didn’t even try that because I figured it would be a bit higher, but chicken thighs are what is used in my mom’s original recipe so I am super excited to make this with them next time! So happy you enjoyed it!

I’m getting ready to make this….when I put it in the recipe builder I’m getting 8 smart points per serving at 6 servings, not 6 smart points….
Be sure that you are counting 1 cup dry rice, not cooked rice. Enjoy!

Hi! I made this and it was super yummy! I follow Points Plus, and when I put in the nutrition stats I come up with 6PP per serving but you have 3. Wondering if I didn’t do it right? Thanks!
I will double check. I might have made a mistake! I’ll get back to ya. I’m happy you enjoyed!
Hi Kylee! I just checked. It’s 6 Points Plus. I must have just simply forgot a number when plugging it in to the points plus calculator! Sorry about that. It’s all fixed now!
No problem, just thought I did it wrong! It was so good, & filling. Thanks!

How do you think it’ll turn out with a cup of brown rice instead of white? I have that in the pantry! Lol
I’ve seen people make it with brown rice and they said it was great! It might need a few extra minutes so just make sure the rice is tender. =)

This was a hit! We made it on a freezing cold night and it just hits the spot when you need comfort food.
I am so happy you loved this! I couldn’t agree more. This was a meal that I grew up on and it is the definition of comfort to me. AND it’s one of the easiest things to put together when you’ve got a lot of other stuff to do!

Delicious!! Great for weekdays when I don’t feel like cooking because it’s so easy. Another one of our favorites.
I always have the stuff for this on hand because of that exact reason. Some times the day just disappears, but I know this can be made in an hour and completely satisfy all of the hungry bellies! Thanks and I am so happy y’all enjoy!

Just made this and it turned out delish! The only thing is my recipe had only 4 cups instead of the 6.
I followed recipe, will the points be different ???

This sounds delicious; I am definitely going to give it a try! I am also looking forward to the original recipe for times when I want to splurge. 🙂
Yes! I will for sure be posting the original in a few weeks. It’s honestly not that terrible, it just has the bone in chicken with skin that adds a lot more points! Enjoy!

Can’t wait to make this. I think my Mom made the same recipe. The only thing I see different is that you used the 98% fat-free soup in the “lightened up” version. Is that right?
I also used chicken breast instead of the bone in chicken drumsticks & thighs:)
Got it! I think my Mom always used breast meat so I didn’t even notice that was changed! Thank you! Love your blog!
