- 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup, NOT diluted (I prefer the reduced sodium, Healthy Request version)

- 1 (1 ounce) packet Lipton onion soup mix

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- In the prepared baking dish (or in a separate bowl), whisk together uncooked rice (and the seasoning from the box), cream of mushroom soup, cream of celery soup, and water.
- Place raw chicken (skin removed) on top of rice mixture. Sprinkle the onion soup mix over the chicken.
- Cover tightly with foil and bake for at least 90 minutes (or up to 2 hours), until rice is tender and chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F. The total cooking time will depend on the size of your chicken. I baked these extra large chicken breasts and thighs for the full 2 hours and they turned out perfectly. A meat thermometer is really the best way to tell when your chicken is done.
- When the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through, fluff the rice with a fork and serve!
Notes
- *I used 2 very large bone-in chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs. each), as well as 2 bone-in chicken thighs (about ½ lb. each).
- You want the chicken meat to reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F. That's how you know it's done! My meat thermometer is my best friend in the kitchen -- just make sure that the thermometer is not touching the chicken bone when you check the temp.
- What to Serve with Chicken Wild Rice Casserole:
- I keep it easy and pair my casserole with simple sides, such as:
- Steamed broccoli or Garlic Roasted Broccoli
- Slow Cooker Southern Green Beans
- Brown Sugar Roasted Acorn Squash; or
- 3-Ingredient Cranberry Orange Sauce
