Ingredients

Units Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 stick butter (1/2 cup)
  • 1 can condensed French onion soup (10.5 oz)
  • 1 can condensed beef broth soup (10.5 oz)

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup white rice (rinsed, not instant)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it is at the right temperature for baking.
  2. Prepare baking dish: Lightly spray a baking dish with non-stick spray to prevent sticking and facilitate easy cleanup.
  3. Rinse rice: Rinse the white rice thoroughly with water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch, ensuring fluffier cooked rice.
  4. Place rice in dish: Spread the rinsed rice evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  5. Add soups: Pour both condensed French onion soup and beef broth soup over the rice, distributing evenly.
  6. Stir: Gently stir the rice and soups together with a mixing spoon to combine flavors without breaking the rice grains.
  7. Add butter: Place the stick of butter on top of the mixture, allowing it to melt during baking for added richness.
  8. Cover and bake: Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes to allow the rice to absorb flavors and cook through.
  9. Remove foil and stir: Carefully remove the foil, stir the mixture gently to redistribute moisture, and continue baking uncovered for another 30 minutes until the rice is tender and slightly caramelized on top.
  10. Final stir and serve: Stir the baked rice one last time before serving hot, enjoying its savory, buttery goodness.

Notes

  • Ensure the rice is not instant for proper texture and cooking time.
  • You can add shredded cheese or herbs for extra flavor.
  • This dish pairs well with steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.
  • Adjust baking time slightly for different oven calibrations or rice types.
