Tips You Must Know for Perfect No-Peek Chicken Casserole

Don't be tempted to peek at the casserole while baking hence the name no peek!

Once you put the foil over the casserole the oven does the magic however you will need to check right around 1 hour and 15 minutes to make sure that the rice is nice and soft.

Even though the steam will cook the rice and chicken to perfection and keep the chicken tender, it still can be not cooked to your preference, just remember chicken is cooked at 165 degrees so use an instant-read thermometer and remove it if the rice isn't cooked yet.

You can always add more water, chicken broth, or milk and continue to cook the rice until it's cooked.

SLOW COOKER MEthod: When using a slow cooker mix all ingredients together, layer half of the mixture, chicken, and then pour the remaining mixture on top.

Add 1 to 1 1/2 cans of water and slow-cook the chicken and rice for 4 hours on high. Remember the internal temperature for chicken using an instant-read thermometer is 165 degrees.
