How To Make awesome chicken & wild rice casserole

• 1

  Rinse the rice under running water. Cook in 2 cups water and 1/2 tsp. salt for about an hour, tightly covered.

  While the rice is cooking, if you're not using leftover chicken, cook the chicken however you like. I just microwave mine until it's almost done. It can be boiled, broiled, pan fried, sauteed, done on a George Foreman grill, whatever. Cut into bite sized pieces.

  Combine the soups and the sour cream.
• 4

  Grease a 13 x 9 pan or casserole dish. Pour in the cooked rice, the chicken pieces, and the soup mixture, and stir until well mixed.
• 5

  Bake, covered, for 45 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Top with french fried onions and bake, uncovered, for 10 minutes more.

  My husband is a VERY picky eater so I make it just like this. It is wonderful, though, if you want to add a can of drained, diced water chestnuts, and celery, and some slivered almonds and a can of mushrooms. Yummy!
