Ingredients
- 1 cup long-grain white rice (uncooked)
- 1 (10 oz) can condensed French onion soup
- 1 (10 oz) can condensed beef broth
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with nonstick spray or butter.
- Combine the Ingredients: In the prepared baking dish, mix together the uncooked rice, condensed French onion soup, and condensed beef broth. Stir gently to ensure the liquids are evenly distributed.
- Add the Butter: Slice the butter into even pieces and arrange them on top of the rice mixture to infuse the dish with rich, buttery flavor.
- Cover and Bake: Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil to lock in moisture. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
- Finish Baking: Remove the foil and continue baking uncovered for another 30 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is fully absorbed.
- Rest and Serve: Allow the rice to rest for a few minutes after removing it from the oven. Fluff with a fork, serve warm, and enjoy!
Notes
- Use long-grain white rice for the best texture and even cooking.
- Ensure the foil is sealed tightly during the first baking stage to prevent moisture loss.
- Letting the rice rest after baking allows the flavors to meld and the texture to set perfectly.
