A few weeks ago, as I was looking through my pantry, I noticed I had a ton of rice. I don’t know remember if there was a sale I just HAD to take advantage of, or if I was continuously overlooking the rice I had, and buying more. I wanted to find a way to use some up quickly, so I made our favorite side dish. This french onion rice is amazing! It only takes a few minutes to throw together, and has amazing flavor! My kids love this, and even my “I don’t like rice” husband says that this is great!!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup uncooked white rice (not instant)
- 1 ( 10 oz) can condensed French Onion soup
- 1 (10 oz) can beef broth
- 1/2 cup butter, sliced
Directions:
- In an 8×8 baking dish, combine the rice, soup and broth.
- Add in the cut butter slices on top of rice mixture.
- Cover baking dish with tin foil and bake in a preheated oven, 425, for about 25 minutes.
- Remove tin foil and continue baking an additional 20-25 minutes, or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
- Serve and enjoy!!

Have you tried this stove top? It would be a great side dish for grilled chicken if you didn’t have to heat the house up for almost an hour.
I personally have never tried it over the stove, however, I have heard from one person that they tried this over the stove and adjusted the liquid to 2 cups. They said it turned out great!! 🙂
I just made this and wow everyone loved it but i didnt use as much butter so as to cut down on calories and added a bit more broth and was still so good.
Have you tried it with brown rice? I’m thinking just a little more liquid and a bit longer cooking?
What is the suggestion to serve 6 people. Do I double, triple etc the ingredients???
This recipe makes 6 servings as is, 🙂
My family (2 adults and 3 children) ate it and had seconds, with some still leftover!! Enjoy!!!
I have never tried it with brown rice, but I would think it would work great! Just adjust time and liquid as you mentioned!! Keep us posted on how it turns out!! 🙂
Yea!!!! So glad you all enjoyed it!!! It sure is a family favorite of ours!! 🙂
I make this recipe with pork chops or tenderloin added. Great one dish meal.
Ooooo yummy!!
we’ve been making this for a long time. We always put a can of drained mushrooms in too. We’ve also added browned hamburger to it and made it a meal.
Great ideas!! I will have to remember that for next time! Thanks!
My mom used to make this for us when we were kids! Except she adds a can of mushrooms as well. I had forgotten about this until I saw this recipe!
Oh yummy!! Glad you came across the recipe! Hope you make it soon! 🙂
I have made this recipe for 20 years . It’s a must at the holidays
I agree! I make it frequently because its my favorite!!
