CHICKEN & WILD RICE
This another of my mom's recipes, and one of my all time favorites. It just takes a few minutes to put together, and gives you time to relax etc, while it bakes. I make this when I need something special, but don't have the time to invest in "fancy". I think the best type of pan to use for this, is the bottom part of a broiler pan, but a 13x9 works fine too. One final note - for some families, once box of the rice might be enough. We just love the rice so much, that I use 2 - the leftovers are fabulous, even if it's just rice leftover, and no chicken.

Steps:
- Rinse chicken and pat dry. Pour contents of Rice mix in pan (there will be an spice mix in the box - add that too). Lay chicken on top of rice. Add the amount of water listed on the rice mix, I think it's 2 ¼ cup, for each box. Sprinkle on dry soup mix. Dot with butter. ( I use about 3 tablespoons butter - my Mom used an entire stick - your choice :).
- Cover with foil or lid, and bake for about 45 minutes - remove cover and bake another 20 minutes. Cooking time will vary based on type of chicken parts used. If you use boneless skinless chicken be sure to to adjust time or chicken will be very dry.
