CHICKEN, RICE, AND SPICES BAKE
I got this recipe from my friend Kasey a long time ago (I have adjusted the spices to my taste) and it is very easy--even for those that just can't seem to get basmati rice to cook "just right". So long as you cover the baking dish tightly with foil, it will not fail! I brought this to a pot-luck at work one day and ever since this dish was always requested by everyone at all of our potlucks.***I am cutting the salt to around half since there are quite a few reviews saying it is too salty. I don't measure the spices when I cook so I think I guessed the amount wrong.*** *** the cinnamon amount should be 1/2 tsp to 3/4 tsp only, not 2 teaspoons. I have tried changing it twice now and get email confirmation that the changes have been approved but it still says 2 tsp of cinnamon.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except for cilantro and mix thoroughly to combine. Make sure the yogurt and cheese are stirred in throughout the entire bowl. Season with salt and pepper if desired. Transfer to an oven-safe dish and top with extra cheese if you would like. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through. Garnish with chopped cilantro. To make this process easier, I always have cooked chicken on hand, and use Uncle Ben's Ready Rice. If you have those two things, this can be throw together in a matter of minutes! It can also easily be made ahead of time and reheated.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Choose fresh chicken breasts, long grain rice, and flavorful vegetables.
- Season the chicken and rice well before baking. This will help them develop a delicious crust and interior.
- Don't overcrowd the baking dish. Give the chicken and rice enough space to cook evenly.
- Bake the chicken and rice until the chicken is cooked through and the rice is tender. This usually takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Let the chicken and rice rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute and make the dish even more flavorful.
- Serve the chicken and rice with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a green salad.
Conclusion:
Chicken and rice bake is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give chicken and rice bake a try. You won't be disappointed!
