No-Peek Chicken and Rice with Herby Tomato Salad
Ingredients
Scale
Chicken & Rice
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
- ½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 2 cups rice, rinsed and drained
- 1 (10.75-ounce) can cream of chicken soup
- 1 (10.75-ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
- 1⅓ cups chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese, grated
Tomato Salad
- 1½ cups cherry tomatoes, halved
- ⅓ cup parsley leaves and tender stems, roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a small bowl, combine salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, and black pepper. Season both sides of each chicken thigh and set aside.
- In a 9”x13” baking pan, mix together rinsed rice with cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, and chicken broth. Lay seasoned chicken thighs over the surface of the rice mixture, then drizzle olive oil evenly over top of chicken. Cover pan with foil then bake, rotating halfway through, until rice is tender and chicken is cooked through, 1 hour. Once cooked, remove foil and sprinkle parmesan cheese over the chicken and rice, place it under the broiler until the cheese melts and starts to brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
- For the salad, combine tomatoes, parsley, olive oil, salt, and black pepper in a medium bowl. Spoon the tomato salad over the chicken and rice and serve.
