Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups boiling water
1 cup uncooked white rice
2 cubes chicken bouillon
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup thinly sliced zucchini
½ cup diced celery
½ cup diced onion
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup with roasted garlic
1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained
1 cup diced cooked chicken
½ cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 (3 ounce) can French-fried onions

Steps:

  • Bring water, rice, and chicken bouillon to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir zucchini, celery, and onion in hot oil until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir rice, cream of mushroom soup, cream of mushroom soup with roasted garlic, water chestnuts, chicken, mayonnaise, and lemon juice into vegetable mixture. Transfer mixture to prepared baking dish. Spread French-fried onions over rice mixture.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and lightly browned, 30 to 35 minutes.

The casserole was a bit too spicy for my kids. I think I'll use less chili powder next time.

This casserole was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less cheese.

The casserole was easy to make, but it was a bit dry. I think it would have been better with more sauce.
