Scale
Ingredients
- 1 cup long grain rice (not Instant)
- 10 oz Campbell’s French Onion Soup
- 10 oz beef broth
- ½ cup butter, sliced
Instructions
- Mix ingredients: In an 8×8-inch baking dish, combine the long grain rice, French onion soup, and beef broth. Stir gently to evenly distribute the ingredients ensuring the rice is submerged in the liquid.
- Add butter: Place the sliced butter evenly on top of the rice mixture to allow it to melt during baking, which will add rich flavor and creaminess to the dish.
- Cover and bake: Cover the baking dish tightly with tin foil to trap moisture. Place it in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) and bake covered for about 25 minutes.
- Bake uncovered: Remove the foil and continue baking for another 20-25 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid has completely absorbed, with a slightly golden top.
- Serve: Remove from oven and let it sit briefly before serving hot. Enjoy as a hearty side or comforting main course.
Notes
- Use long grain rice, not instant, for best texture.
- You can substitute beef broth for vegetable broth for a milder taste.
- Adjust salt as needed depending on the sodium content of the broth and soup.
- Covering the dish while baking ensures the rice cooks evenly and retains moisture.
- For a crispier top, broil uncovered for 2-3 minutes at the end of baking.
