Quick and Easy Chicken Recipe

When I am looking for a new recipe, I have very few requirements. It needs to be easy. And the prep work needs to be minimal. I found a wonderful recipe that meets both of those criteria and is delicious to boot!


The ingredients needed are:
*6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
*6 slices bacon
*1 C uncooked white rice
*Salt
*Pepper
*Paprika
*Cajun seasoning
*1 can cream of chicken soup
*1 C chicken broth
*Garlic salt
*1 tsp. oregano
*Parsley

Preheat oven to 300.

Line the bottom of an 8" or 9" square glass baking dish with bacon.


Add the cup of uncooked rice.


Place the chicken on top.


Season the chicken with plenty of salt, pepper, paprika, and cajun seasoning.


In a separate bowl, combine soup and chicken broth.

(today water is playing the part of chicken broth.)

Add a dash of garlic salt.


Add 1 tsp. oregano.


Add 1 large palmful of dried parsley.


Whisk together.


Pour on top of the chicken. Don't stir.


Put a double layer of aluminum foil over the pan and bake for 2 hours.


Enjoy!

You had me at bacon!
And are those your nails? Your OWN nails??? Wow! :)
I don't know about baking for that long. I might forget about it and leave. And you know I'd manage to cancel the timer out somewhere in there and then not know how much time is left. Am I the only one who does that all.the.time?

Yes, my own nails! Crazy, right? They are uber thin and breakable, but I am trying. :)
I don't mess with a timer because I KNOW I would screw it up!

You could have left out Quick and Easy CHICKEN recipe and just said "Bacon, oh and other stuff"

I made this Sunday night and my hubby ate almost all of it. I only had one thigh to take to work with me on Monday. This will def be made again!

I love that there is BACON at the bottom of that! Takes it up about 15 notches from the usual chicken and rice recipe :)

Cheryl said...

This sounds good, but 2 HOURS bake time!? Holy moly! I'm not good at "planning ahead", so I look for 30 min. or less recipes...but I will TRY to try this one...it looks VERY yummy! :o)

Wow, wow, wow! Just made this dish with a couple of mods and it was spectacular. I used cream of mushroom instead of cream of chicken and used Jamaican jerk seasoning in place of Cajun and it was a home run. Wonderful recipe! Thanks for sharing!

Just popped this in the oven this morning, for the low and slow cook time. Smells great in here. Because I had them to use up, I diced a small white onion and 2 carrots up and threw them, just raw, over the rice...then put the seasoned thighs on top and poured over the liquids. I hope it doesn't ruin your recipe. 🎃☺

Has anyone tried this recipe in a pressure cooker?
