Recipe VIDEO above. Made entirely in the oven (no stove!), the rice in this recipe is outrageously delicious! It's buttery and garlicky, tender but not mushy. The secret tip is to briefly bake onion with garlic and butter before adding the rice, liquids and chicken - it adds a great flavour base!

Tips for Making the Best Baked Chicken and Rice

Use a flavorful marinade. Marinating the chicken in a flavorful mixture of herbs, spices, and liquids will help to infuse it with flavor and keep it moist during baking.
Brown the chicken before baking. Browning the chicken in a skillet over medium heat before baking will help to develop a crispy skin and seal in the juices.
Use a variety of vegetables. Adding a variety of vegetables to the dish, such as carrots, celery, and onions, will add flavor, color, and nutrients.
Cook the rice properly. Be sure to cook the rice according to the package directions. If the rice is not cooked properly, it will be either undercooked or overcooked, which will affect the overall flavor of the dish.
Let the dish rest before serving. Once the chicken and rice is baked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the dish, resulting in a more flavorful and moist meal.
