Previously when I’d see the words “reduction sauce,” I used to move on to another recipe myself. Now before you click and surf away, that’s not a hard thing at all. The easiest way to make many of such dishes is to focus on reduction methods. I’m passing on more and more these days, particularly because I just watched the movie, Food, Inc. So, while I was remembering and craving the chicken and rice casserole, I decided I wanted to make it without any condensed soups-instead making the recipe from scratch like I do for other family favorites.
Even if you do find safe, gluten-free condensed soups, you might take a look at the ingredients and decide to pass.
#Award winning no peek chicken and rice free#
I’m gluten free and condensed soups are rarely gluten free (certainly, not the ones in my local store anyway). (It was spooned over the chicken, but, of course, also helped flavor the rice as well.) Cream of mushroom, cream of celery, and cream of chicken were all options.īut fast forward to today. The other soup called for in the recipe was a “cream of” soup of one’s choice. French Onion was the one that was poured over the rice directly. I could still remember the great flavor that the chicken and the condensed soups imparted to the rice. I made it a few time in later years, but Mr. It called for not just one can of condensed soup, but two! It was a “go to” recipe back in my single days. At one point I even had a cookbook (a gift) that consisted completely of recipes using condensed soups.įor some reason, I’d been thinking about one of those recipes lately-a chicken and rice casserole dish that I enjoyed many years ago. In fact, I was the perfect consumer of the various condensed soups. So it’s ironic that for years I was content to make an array of recipes using condensed soups. Plus, I have always wondered what parts were left out, and if, in condensing, the story perhaps took on a slightly different meaning.Ĭertainly we see that type of thing in the media one statement taken out of context has a completely different meaning. It’s always seemed like a type of blasphemy to me to alter original stories. Truth be told, I’ve never liked condensed or abridged versions of books. The original version was not gluten free because of those condensed soups it included. Making this recipe uncondensed also makes it gluten free.
