The cooked rice doesn't turn out mushy after two hours in the oven? I'll have to remember that.....

Actually, no, it's wrong, and I've asked to have it taken out.

These things happen, isn't it nice that we all keep an eye on each other, though?

Try the rice uncooked. maybe adjust liquids

That's the direction we're heading in, just need to figure out the liquid....

You're quite right, the rice should be uncooked and the baking time reduced to one hour. One cup of uncooked rice, and another can of tomato soup, I think. I don't know what I was thinking.

I used to make simple chicken and rice for the kids. Drumsticks, mushroom soup and MINUTE rice. 45 minutes or less. Can't remember the amounts tho. Tried regular rice once. It was a fiasco. Throws the cooking time way off. Then you have to add chicken way after starting time.
