Spanish Chicken & Rice Bake image

A throw-it-together and pop it in the oven supper. Use more chili powder or add hot sauce if you really want to spice it up! I just want to add: Many people who have tried this recipe have had to cook it longer than I have specified. A hint: I always use a casserole dish with a heavy tight-fitting lid. I sometimes presoak my rice in cold water for 10 minutes or so. Hope this helps! =) Barb PS...To Freeze : Cool, portion and freeze in a ziploc bag. To reheat: Thaw, place in a covered casserole dish and bake until heated through.

I made this dish in a slow cooker and it turned out great. I cooked it on low for 8 hours and the chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender.

I topped this dish with shredded cheese before baking it. The cheese melted and got golden brown, which was the perfect finishing touch.

I used brown rice instead of white rice and it turned out great. The brown rice gave the dish a nutty flavor.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I often make a big batch of chicken on the weekend and then use it to make this dish during the week.
