# Steps:

01 - Heat the oven to 175°C (350°F) ensuring it reaches full temperature before use.

06 - Evenly distribute the entire packet of Lipton onion soup mix over the chicken to infuse flavor throughout.
07 - Tightly cover the dish with foil, sealing edges to trap steam, and bake for 45 to 50 minutes until chicken is cooked through and rice is tender.
08 - Remove foil and allow the dish to rest for 5 minutes to thicken the sauce and meld flavors before serving.

# Notes:

01 - Check chicken internal temperature, which should reach 75°C to ensure safe consumption.
