  • 2 lbs. Chicken Thighs with bone and skin

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Follow the Reynolds Oven Bag directions and flour the bag before adding ingredients.

Place the bag into a deeper casserole dish or roasting pan.

Add all of the ingredients except the seasoned chicken.

With a plastic spoon, carefully stir to incorporate a little better.

Evenly arrange chicken on top for the rice mixture.

Cut your slits on the top of the bag.

Spoon the rice and chicken onto a large platter and serve warm.

Serves 8.
