Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Stir in the peas and add an additional 1/4 cup broth, if needed, to keep the rice from sticking. Bake until the chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the bay leaf and serve.

This was good, though a little tomato-y and bland, I thought. But it was nothing that a little salt and green chili Tabasco Sauce couldn't jazz up! And despite stirring during the baking process, the rice near the top was a little al dente by the end of the full cooking time. Also, the directions don't say when to add the bay leaf. It seemed of questionable benefit anyway, just plunking a single bay leaf somewhere in the middle of a casserole. I'm not sure that it added much.

This is a terrific recipe if you like real Spanish rice. The stuff you get in a box or at a Mexican restaurant is awful. This is the real stuff. I was tempted to use regular white rice, but I stuck with the recipe and used Arborio rice. If you do, you'll be rewarded as I was. Next time I'll use more onion, but that's for my own taste. This recipe is great.
