Ingredients

Scale

Rice Mixture

  • 1 cup long grain rice (not Instant)
  • 10 oz Campbell’s French Onion Soup
  • 10 oz beef broth

Butter Topping

  • 1/2 cup butter, sliced

Instructions

  1. Combine the ingredients: In an 8×8 inch baking dish, mix together the long grain rice, Campbell’s French Onion Soup, and beef broth until evenly combined.
  2. Add butter slices: Evenly place the sliced butter pieces on top of the rice and soup mixture to ensure a rich buttery flavor as it bakes.
  3. Cover and bake initially: Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil to trap steam and moisture. Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for about 25 minutes.
  4. Remove foil and bake further: Carefully remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 20 to 25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been fully absorbed, forming a creamy texture.
  5. Serve: Remove from oven and let it rest slightly before serving. Enjoy the comforting, savory French Onion Soup Rice warm.

Notes

  • Use long grain rice, not instant, for best texture and absorption.
  • Make sure to slice the butter to allow even melting throughout the rice.
  • Ensure the baking dish is well covered during the first baking phase to avoid drying out the rice.
  • You can garnish with chopped fresh parsley or grated cheese for extra flavor if desired.
  • This dish pairs well with a simple green salad or roasted vegetables.
