Ingredients
Scale
Rice Mixture
- 1 cup long grain rice (not Instant)
- 10 oz Campbell’s French Onion Soup
- 10 oz beef broth
Butter
- ½ cup butter, sliced
Instructions
- Prepare the Rice Mixture: In an 8×8 baking dish, combine the long grain rice, Campbell’s French Onion Soup, and beef broth, stirring gently to mix the ingredients evenly.
- Add Butter Slices: Arrange the sliced butter evenly on top of the rice mixture. The butter will melt during baking to add richness and flavor to the dish.
- Cover and Bake Initially: Cover the baking dish tightly with tin foil to trap steam and moisture, then bake in a preheated oven at 425°F for about 25 minutes to start cooking the rice.
- Uncover and Continue Baking: After 25 minutes, carefully remove the tin foil and continue baking uncovered for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all liquid is fully absorbed.
- Serve: Once cooked through, remove from oven, let cool slightly, then serve this delicious French Onion Soup Rice warm as a comforting side or main dish.
Notes
- Ensure to use long grain rice that is not instant for best results and proper texture.
- Covering the dish initially helps trap steam to cook the rice evenly and prevent drying out.
- Butter slices on top add both flavor and creaminess; do not substitute with margarine for best taste.
- This dish pairs well with roasted meats or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and gently reheated in the oven or microwave.
