Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup white rice (rinsed)
Liquids
- 1 can condensed French onion soup
- 1 can condensed beef broth soup
Fats
- 1 stick butter (1/2 cup)
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 400℉ (200℃) to ensure it’s at the right temperature before baking.
- Prepare baking dish: Spray a baking dish with non-stick spray to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Rinse rice: Rinse the white rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear, removing excess starch.
- Combine ingredients: Place the rinsed rice in the prepared baking dish. Pour both cans of condensed French onion and beef broth soup over the rice.
- Mix: Gently stir the rice and soups together using a mixing spoon to evenly distribute the ingredients.
- Add butter: Place the stick of butter on top of the rice mixture for richness and flavor.
- Cover and bake: Cover the dish tightly with foil to trap steam and baked moisture, then place in the oven.
- Bake first phase: Bake for 30 minutes, allowing the rice to absorb the flavors and soften.
- Stir again: Remove the foil carefully, stir the rice mixture gently to redistribute the ingredients, then cover again.
- Final bake: Continue baking uncovered for another 30 minutes, until the rice is tender and flavorful.
- Finish and serve: Stir the baked rice one last time, then serve hot and enjoy the savory comfort.
Notes
- Make sure to use rinse white rice, not instant rice, for the best texture.
- You can add herbs or spices like black pepper or thyme for extra flavor.
- Use a baking dish that fits all ingredients comfortably to ensure even cooking.
