Kittencal's Creamy Parmesan Oven-Baked Rice

By ghudsontx

This is creamy and delicious, you may also add in some frozen thawed peas or canned drained sliced mushrooms or fresh sauteed, if you are not a garlic lover then omit the fresh garlic or you may use 1/2 teaspoon or more of garlic powder --- if you love risotto then you will love this rice!

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons oil (or as needed to cover bottom of the saucepan can use butter or half of each)
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 3 garlic cloves, chopped (can use more)
• 1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 1 cup milk
• 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (more to mix in after cooking if desired)
• 1 cup uncooked long grain white rice
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste)
