Instructions: How to Cook Cracker Barrel Chicken And Rice
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken breasts on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the diced onion, celery, and carrots. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the rice to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Stir in the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, sour cream, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Transfer the rice mixture to a baking dish. Place the browned chicken breasts on top of the rice.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the rice is tender.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes to allow the top to brown slightly.
- Serve the Cracker Barrel Chicken and Rice hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
