- Arrange the chicken: Lay the chicken thighs on top of the rice mixture in the baking dish, making sure they are evenly spaced.

- Serve: Once the chicken is done, remove the foil and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your flavorful golden mushroom soup chicken!
Notes
- Rice Tip: Use converted rice (like Uncle Ben’s), as it is resistant to the cooking process and doesn’t become mushy.
- Freezer-Friendly: This dish can be frozen! Simply prepare it, let it cool, and then freeze the casserole in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven when ready to enjoy.
