Sheree's Grandma's Chicken and Rice Bake (Copycat) instructions

1. Basically I use leg quarters because I love the taste better. The thighs can be deboned before cooking. This meal is a perfect (FREEZER CASSEROLE)..
2. If you are using pre-cooked chicken go to step #5.
3. If FREEZING do not add CORN FLAKES or BUTTER. It will be soggy..
4. IF YOU ARE BAKING YOUR OWN CHICKEN.... Put 4 leg quarters in a large bowl. Put everything on the chicken in the bowl. Use the ingredients listed for baking only. Rub all the spices into chicken by hand. Place in a baking dish cover with foil and cook at 375° for 1 1/2 hours. Take it out and open the foil and allow to cool. I use the baking broth mixed with the soups for flavor..
5. Put all ingredients for the casserole in a baking dish... I use disposable aluminum pans when I freeze this. If you use pre cooked chicken add about 1/2 cup of milk to mix soups..
6. Mix well put the crushed corn flakes on top and drizzle melted butter on top..
7. Bake casserole uncovered... For 35-40 minutes at 350°..
8. If frozen allow to thaw before baking..
