* 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
* 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
* 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
* 1 tsp dried basil leaves
* 1 tsp dried oregano leaves
* Salt and pepper to taste
* Fresh chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Steps
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of uncooked white rice, 2 cups of water, salt, and pepper to taste. Cover the bowl with aluminum foil and let it sit for 15 minutes.
Step 3: Remove the foil from the bowl and stir in 1 cup of grated cheddar cheese, 1 cup of shredded chicken (cooked or canned), and 1/2 cup of diced onion. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
Step 4: Transfer the rice mixture to a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the rice is cooked through and the cheese is melted.
Step 5: Remove the foil from the baking dish and sprinkle an additional 1/4 cup of grated cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole. Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for another 5-10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 6: Remove from the oven and let it cool down for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired. Enjoy your delicious fathers day casserole!
