Grandma Georgia's Chicken and Rice Casserole from The Food Charlatan
Grandma Georgia's Chicken and Rice Casserole from The Food Charlatan. This was one of my Grandma's signature dishes, pure comfort food. She called it Chicken Continental. She used Minute Rice and canned soup. I've updated the recipe to be completely from scratch, with a homemade sauce and white rice (which is more nutritious.) It's still really easy, and a great old fashioned recipe for when you feel like you need a warm hug from your dinner! The best old school recipe with NO canned soup.
