No-Peek Chicken

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

1 cup rice, uncooked

1 can cream of mushroom soup

1 can cream of chicken soup

1 1/2 cups chicken stock

1 envelope onion soup mix

Salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 350.  Spray a 9 x 13 pan or an enameled cast iron pan with lid (that's what I used.)

Pour the uncooked rice in the bottom of the pan.  Whisk together the soups and stock and spread over the rice.  Place the breasts on top and season with salt and pepper.  

Sprinkle the onion soup mix evenly over the chicken.  Cover and bake for 1 hour 30 minutes.  Remove from oven and let sit for a few minutes before serving.
