  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 can (10 3/4 ounce) condensed cream of chicken soup or 98% fat-free condensed cream of chicken soup

1 cup picante sauce

1/2 cup water

1 cup corn

3/4 cup uncooked rice

4 chicken breasts

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Paprika (amount for sprinkling)

Instructions

1-First, mix the condensed cream of chicken soup, picante sauce, water, corn, and uncooked rice in a 2-quart shallow baking dish. The combination creates a savory base that infuses the chicken with taste. Place the chicken breasts on top and sprinkle with paprika for a hint of spice.

2-Next, cover the dish and bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. This step locks in moisture and blends the flavors.

3-Finally, remove the cover and sprinkle with the shredded cheddar cheese before serving to add a gooey, cheesy finish.
