Lipton Onion Soup Thighs with Rice

If you’re looking for an easy and delicious dinner that requires minimal effort, Lipton Onion Soup Thighs with Rice is the perfect choice. This recipe uses simple ingredients like Lipton Onion Soup Mix, chicken thighs, and rice to create a flavorful, hearty meal. The rice turns out perfectly cooked and full of savory flavor, and the chicken thighs are juicy and tender. It’s a great way to use up those packets of Lipton Onion Soup Mix without the need for a roast!

Ingredients:

  • Chicken Thighs
  • 2 cups rice (uncooked)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 can cream of chicken
  • 1 can cream of mushroom
  • 1 packet Lipton Onion Soup Mix
  • Garlic powder (to taste)
  • Seasoning (your choice)
  • Shredded Parmesan
  • Panko breadcrumbs

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 13×9 baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the uncooked rice and chicken broth. Stir in the Lipton Onion Soup Mix, cream of chicken, and cream of mushroom soup. Pour this mixture into the bottom of the greased baking dish.
  3. Add the chicken thighs on top of the rice mixture. Sprinkle with garlic powder, your desired seasoning, and a generous amount of panko breadcrumbs for crunch.
  4. Top with shredded parmesan for an extra layer of flavor.
  5. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 1 hour. After 1 hour, remove the foil and bake for an additional 25 minutes to allow the chicken to crisp up and the rice to absorb all the flavors.

This dish is perfect for a busy weeknight or when you want a comforting meal with minimal prep. The rice is so flavorful and pairs perfectly with the tender chicken thighs. Plus, it’s a great option for using up pantry staples while still creating a satisfying meal that everyone will love.

Keto-Friendly Chicken Dish

Keto-Friendly Chicken Dish

Keto-Friendly Chicken Dish

I was overall pleased with this Keto-Friendly Chicken Dish.  Lately, I’m trying things (some fail, some not), and I post as I make them.  That way, when I look back, I can see what my crew liked and didn’t.

Ingredients

3.5 chicken breasts

Seasoning

Spinach

Italian Seasoning

Fresh Mushrooms

Green onions

1/2 c. olive oil

1 c. chicken broth

Mozzarella

Directions

I had Big Daddy take each chicken breast and slice them thinly.  With 3.5 chicken breasts, it filled 2 greased 13×9 pans.  I seasoned, with my seasoning mix, each side of the chicken.

Then, I added my spinach, Italian seasoning, and fresh mushrooms to my food processor.  I chopped them finely and then spread some over each chicken breast.  Then, I sprinkled Italian seasoning over the top.

Next Up

I put the cream cheese in the microwave for about 30 seconds to soften it.  Then, I added the oil and chicken broth and whisked those together.  Next, I smeared that over each breast and sprinkled the top with the green onions.

Bake at 375, covered, for 20-25 minutes.  Take the cover off, add mozzarella and cook for another 10 minutes.

What I Would Do Different

Next, I will add minced garlic and sauteed onion to the mix.  Overall, this was a good dish; my family gobbled it up guiltless!

Parmesan Crusted Chicken with Asiago

Brandi C

Chicken.  Parmesan.  Asiago.  You can’t get much better than a Parmesan Crusted Chicken with Asiago recipe.  So, here is what I concocted.  This would be good with Gouda or Havarti, as well. Parmesan Crusted Chicken with Asiago is a savory and indulgent dish that is perfect for a family dinner or when you want to impress guests. The key to success with this recipe is ensuring that the chicken is seared to a perfect golden brown before finishing in the oven with a generous layer of shredded asiago and crumbled bacon. The egg wash and parmesan coating create a delicious, crispy crust, while the asiago cheese adds a rich, nutty flavor. The crumbled bacon brings an added smokiness, making this dish irresistible. Serve it with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes for a complete meal that will leave everyone asking for seconds.

Parmesan Crusted Chicken with Asiago

Parmesan Crusted Chicken with Asiago

Chicken (I use raw chicken breasts.  I cut off all the tough parts.  It was thick, so I sliced it in third.  It cooked quicker doing it like that)

2 Eggs with a splash of water.

1 c. parmesan with seasoning

After the chicken is cut, dredge in egg wash and then in parmesan.

In a large skillet, get the oil hot.  You do not want the breading to stick to the skillet and/or come off.

While that is cooking, put your bacon in the oven.

Place your chicken in oil and sear on both sides.

Next Up

350 for the stove.  Place the chicken on a broiling pan after the chicken is seared on both sides.  You need to put shredded asiago and crumbled bacon on top of the chicken.  I just put it in the oven long enough to melt the cheese.

Good gravy, that was some good stuff.
