    • 🧄 ½ teaspoon garlic powder

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

2

Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 20 to 25 minutes.

3

Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crispy, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels; set drippings aside.

4

Season chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper.

5

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken breasts in batches, turning once, until centers are no longer pink and juices run clear (10 to 12 minutes per batch), ensuring an internal temperature of at least 165°F (74°C). Cut chicken into small pieces; set drippings aside.

6

Bring heavy cream, cream of mushroom soup, and cream of chicken soup to a simmer in a large saucepan; stir in bacon, bacon drippings, and chicken drippings.

7

Spread cooked rice in a thick layer in the bottom of a 9x13-inch dish. Arrange chicken on top, then pour the soup mixture over it. Cover dish with aluminum foil.

8

Bake in the preheated oven until heated through and bubbling, about 10 to 15 minutes.
