Stouffer's Grandma's Chicken and Rice Bake Recipe

Who else grew up loving Stouffer's Grandma's Chicken and Rice Bake? This classic dish is a staple of childhood memories and cozy nights in.
The trick to a creamy sauce that soaks into the rice is using the right balance of broth and condensed soup.
I always go for long-grain rice because it holds its shape without turning mushy, which makes a big difference in texture.
Using shredded rotisserie chicken saves time and adds a deeper, slow-cooked taste without any extra effort.
A little paprika sprinkled on top before baking gives the cheese a beautiful color and an extra layer of richness!
