Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 9x13 qt baking dish with Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil.
  2. Cook onion and mushrooms in a saucepan over medium heat until slightly softened.
  3. Add rice to the saucepan along with the water required on the package and cook according to package directions.
  4. While the rice is cooking, toss chicken with basil, thyme, and salt & pepper to taste. Brown chicken over medium heat in a skillet until all sides are browned and chicken is almost cooked through.
  5. Combine the cooked rice and browned chicken with mushroom soup, sour cream, chicken broth, and ½ cup of cheddar cheese. Toss well to combine.
  6. Spread into the prepared pan and cover with Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil. Bake 20 minutes.
  7. Remove foil and top with remaining ½ cup cheese. Bake an additional 5-7 minutes or until bubbly and the cheese is melted.
  8. Rest 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • It is important to cover the casserole with foil as the steam allows it to continue cooking.
  • This casserole must rest 10 minutes before serving to thicken up.
  • Some brands of wild rice mixture come with a separate seasoning packet. This adds both flavor and salt to the dish. It can be used or left out based on personal preference.
  • Wild rice can be substituted for any kind of cooked rice.
