My mother-in-law made this, and I loved it! Was a favorite to take to gatherings. Ingredients:
3 cups cooked rice |
1/4 cup butter |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1 2/3 cups half-and-half |
1 1/2 cups chicken broth |
1/4 teaspoon rosemary |
1 teaspoon salt |
3 cups diced cooked chicken |
1 (4 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained |
1/3 cup chopped green bell pepper |
1 (2 ounce) jar pimentos |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish.
2. Spread the rice into the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.
3. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir flour in melted butter until frothy, 2 to 3 minutes; add half-and-half, chicken broth, rosemary, and salt to the saucepan. Stirring continually, cook the broth mixture until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir cooked chicken, mushrooms, bell pepper, and pimentos into the sauce; cook until the chicken is hot, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the chicken mixture over the rice; stir lightly.
4. Bake in preheated oven until heated through and the rice is very tender, about 30 minutes.
