Oven Baked Chicken and Rice image

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!

1 ½ cups Greek yogurt, divided
2 tablespoons curry powder, divided
2 cloves garlic, crushed, divided

BAKED CHICKEN BREASTS AND RICE



Baked Chicken Breasts and Rice image

I received this recipe years ago from a coworker. It remains one of our all time favorite chicken recipes and I love that the rice gets cooked at the same time in the same pan. I have never made this recipe without skin on and bone in chicken breasts so if you decide to use skinless, boneless the taste may be very different.

Tips:

  • Use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts: The bones and skin help keep the chicken moist and flavorful as it bakes.
  • Season the chicken generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Sear the chicken before baking: This helps to brown the chicken and seal in the juices.
  • Use a flavorful cooking liquid: You can use chicken broth, white wine, or even beer. The liquid will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: The internal temperature of the chicken should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Baked chicken and rice is an easy and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is a versatile dish that can be customized to your liking. You can use different types of chicken, rice, and vegetables. You can also adjust the seasonings to taste.
