Imani Jackson’s Chicken ‘n’ Rice Bake
My mother’s Chicken ‘n’ Rice Bake was her way of making something BOMB out of nothing.
Ingredients:
6 chicken thighs
1 cup fresh broccoli
2 cups white rice
1 quart chicken broth
1 can Cream of Mushroom soup
½ cup butter or vegetable oil
1 tbsp salt and pepper
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp paprika
⅕ tsp cumin
Instructions: Preheat oven to 400 degrees
1. Spray 9×13 pan. Add the chicken, broccoli, butter or oil, and rice to the pan.
2. Mix the cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, and spices together.
3. Pour over the chicken and rice.
4. Cover the pan and cook for one hour.
5. Flip the chicken 30 minutes into baking. Add more chicken broth if rice isn’t cooked through yet.
6. Remove from oven. Add love and serve.
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
