One Pot Oven Chicken and Rice Bake


This One Pot Oven Chicken and Rice Bake combines chicken with creamy parmesan rice and butternut squash for a complete healthy meal with less dishes to clean.

You’re going to want to use chicken thighs in this dish, breasts will be too dry. I used to buy the authentic arborio risotto rice, but it can be a bit pricey and do the kids know or care? Of course not.

I discovered short grain calrose rice and have been using it ever since. It’s in with all the regular rice varieties at your grocery store and makes a great substitute for the expensive stuff.

Ingredients:


  • 6 chicken thighs can be bone-in or boneless
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt and pepper
  • 1 white onion finely diced
  • 4 cups of peeled seeded butternut squash cut into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 3 sprigs of fresh thyme
  • 1 1/2 cups of short grain rice such as Calrose or Arborio
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 3 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese

Instructions:


  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large deep pot, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil on high heat. Season both sides of the chicken generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Cook the chicken on high heat until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate
