Maria's One Pot Roast Chicken and Rice

I made this recipe from a memory long ago, and it is so simple, easy and delicious that the whole family devours it. Skin on the chicken pieces is a must, however, so don't consider trying this recipe without.

Ingredients

Serves: Prep: 10min|Cook: 1hr 30min |Total: 1hr 40min
              

Directions

1.
Heat the oven to 375 degrees.
2.
In an oven-proof casserole pan, add the uncooked rice and water.
3.
Lay the chicken pieces (skin side up) on top of the rice - yes, right into the water.
4.
Sprinkle some salt on top.
5.
Bake for about an hour to an hour and a half until the rice is done and the chicken skin is golden and crispy.
Recipe Tips
This is a great meal to throw into the oven so you can take an hour to sit and read a magazine while dinner cooks. If you are ambitious and have cut the chicken up yourself, put the back and neck into a pot with water and salt and make a little chicken broth to use for something else. The innards make a safe treat that dogs love to eat.
Serving Suggestions
This is a rich dish, so serve with a salad, cut-up vegetables, and cut-up fruit for dessert.

I found that the white rice does not stand up to the long cooking time but the brown rice is great and adding some rosemary or such makes this dish.

Do you have the lid on the casserole dish?
