1 cup uncooked long grain rice

directions
Line a 13-inch x 9-inch x 2-inch baking pan with heavy duty aluminum foil; set aside.
Combine garlic salt, basil, thyme, cayenne pepper and onion powder; set aside.
Place chicken in foil-lined pan. Sprinkle and rub reserve spice mixture over chicken, turning to coat evenly. Arrange chicken in an even layer in pan.
Bake at 425 degrees F for 35-40 minutes if using fresh chicken, 50-55 minutes if using frozen chicken or until internal juices run clear (temperature should read 180 degrees). Spoon juices from bottom of pan over chicken.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
