chicken and rice recipes From Chinese stir-fries to Spanish paella, the pairing of chicken and rice is as timeless as it is transnational. And while we’re not going to argue with tradition, we’ll say that it’s the barley in this baked chicken casserole that gives it just a little something more, a certain comforting heft that’s perfect for a midwinter, midweek dinner. There’s almost nothing to prep: essentially toss everything into your casserole dish 15 minutes after you walk in the door, then kick off your shoes, open the mail, flip on the news—whatever. And hour later you’ve got a piping hot, family-sized dinner coming out of the oven. As if that weren’t stress-free enough, this Chicken and Barley Bake recipe yields 4 servings at just $1.38 per serving. Satisfying, indeed.
