Cheesy Chicken and Rice
Permalink Closed


I made this tonight and it was so delicious.  6 ww points per serving.  Makes 6 servings.


1 1/2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (I used chicken tenders because that's what I had)


1 c brown rice


1 envelope Liptons dry garlic/mushroom soup mix (I used onion soup mix)


1 can low fat cream of mushroom soup (I used cream of chicken)


2 cups water


4 oz. Velveeta Light


Preheat oven to 375 degrees.


Cut chicken into 1/4 pound pieces (usually in half). Set aside.


Mix the rest of the ingredients together in a shallow baking dish (2 quart size).  Heat in the microwave until it all melts together and mix it together.


Place the chicken pieces on top of the rice mixture, cover, and bake for an hour (I did 45 mins) or until rice is done. I stirred it occasionally to make sure the rice cooked evenly.

I just emailed you another one too.  I'll post it on here for everyone after I make it.  I don't want to post anything without cooking it first.


This one was sooo good.  I was a tad nervous since I used onion soup mix instead of the garlic and mushroom mix because it was all brown while cooking and I just wasn't looking like I thought it would yellow and white haha.  And the rice I wasn't sure because all I had was instant brown rice but I threw it in uncooked and it all turned out well and man did it taste great.  You have to take it out and let it thicken up some because after 45 minutes it still looks soupy but it was ready - the chicken was tender and fab!

yes chicken goes in raw.  I used a 1.33 lb pack of chicken breast tenders instead of chicken breasts cut up which made things easy for me. Just FYI.  Plus I think tenders cook a tad faster than thick breasts.

Thanks. I always use the tenderloins too - even for my cordon bleu - i just use one very thin piece of deli ham & 1/3 of the laughing cow. I find them to be much more tender (and I don't even think that's ironic, right blubirde?)
