Method

Prep

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F.

  • Step 2

    In a small bowl, combine salt, ground black pepper, thyme, and minced garlic together. Divide this spice mixture in half and set aside.

  • Step 3

    Prepare a casserole dish (we use a glass bakeware one), brush it with olive oil on the inside.

  • Step 4

    Add chopped carrot, onion, and rice to the casserole dish, together with half of the spice mixture.

  • Step 5

    Continue to add mushroom soup and chicken broth to the casserole dish. Mix to combine.

  • Step 6

    Place the chicken thighs on top, brush with melted unsalted butter, then sprinkle the remaining spice mixture on them.

Cook

  • Step 1

    Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil, place in the preheated oven, and bake for 1 hour. Remember to select upper and lower heat mode, or else the rice might not be fully cooked.

  • Step 2

    After 1 hour, remove the foil and bake for 10 more minutes, select upper heat mode to give some nice charred marks on the chicken thighs.

  • Step 3

    Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle parsley on top. Serve while it’s still hot.
