Directions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Add to the skillet and cook until browned on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
-
Remove the chicken and set aside. In the same skillet, add the onion and bell pepper, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, and chicken broth. Stir in the uncooked rice.
-
In a baking dish, layer the sautéed onions and bell peppers, then place the browned chicken on top. Pour the soup and rice mixture over the chicken.
-
Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 60 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through.
