ingredients
1 1/4 cup uncooked long-grain rice
1 can (10.75 ounce size) cream of chicken soup
1 can (10.75 ounce size) cream of celery soup
1 can (10.75 ounce size) cream of mushroom soup
1/4 pound melted (and cooled) butter
1/2 cup dry cooking sherry
8 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
2 ounces sliced almonds
3 ounces freshly grated Parmesan cheese
ground paprika, optional
directions
Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
Place the rice in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Combine the cream of chicken soup, cream of celery soup, and cream of mushroom soup in a bowl and mix until combined. Stir in the butter and sherry and mix well.
Pour 1 cup of the soup mixture over the rice and mix well.
Place the chicken breasts in a single layer on top of the rice. Pour the remaining soup mixture evenly over the chicken.
Sprinkle with the almonds and Parmesan cheese. If desired, sprinkle with paprika for color.
Cover the baking dish with foil and place in the oven. Bake at 275 degrees F for 2 1/2 hours or until the chicken is cooked through and the rice is tender. Remove the foil during the last 15-20 minutes of cooking if there is too much liquid remaining.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
