Ingredients
•
3 pounds bone-in chicken breast halves, with skin
•
1 onion, sliced
•
1 cup chopped celery
•
1 cup water, or more as needed
•
1 cup dry white wine
•
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
•
1 teaspoon curry powder
•
2 (6 ounce) packages long grain and wild rice mix
•
2 tablespoons butter
•
1 (16 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
•
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
•
1 cup sour cream
Directions
1
Place chicken breasts in a large pot. Add onion, celery, water, wine, salt, and curry powder; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour. Remove from heat and strain, reserving broth. Allow chicken to cool enough to handle. Remove meat from bones and cut into bite-sized pieces; set aside.
2
Combine reserved broth with water as needed to measure 4 1/4 cups. Pour into a medium saucepan and add butter; stir well. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat.
3
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
4
Combine cooked chicken, cooked rice, and mushrooms in a large bowl. Stir in condensed soup and sour cream. Spoon into the prepared baking dish.
5
Bake in the preheated oven until hot and bubbly, about 1 hour.
