Kay's Chicken-Rice Bake

I learned this dish from our next door neighbor two houses ago. Anyone who knows Kay Stratton down in Myrtle Beach tell her that her chicken bake is now famous. The "broccoli soup" is a variation of a condensed cream of vegetable soup that I've been making for about a year and can be varied to use different veggies.

1 1/2 cups long cooking rice
1 recipe condensed cream of broccoli soup
1 1/2 cups low-sodium or homemade chicken broth
1 1/2 cups water
rest of the bag of frozen broccoli
6 chicken pieces

To make condensed cream of broccoli soup

1/2 cup frozen broccoli
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup low sodium or homemade chicken broth
1 tablespoon parsley
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2/3 cup non-fat non-dairy creamer
2 tablespoon cornstarch

To make soup: Cook broccoli, onion and spices until soft. Process in a blender or food processor until well pureed. Shake together creamer and cornstarch until dissolved. Cook and stir until thick. Stir in veggie mixture.

Mix together rice, soup, broth and water in the bottom of a 9x13 roasting pan. Stir in remaining broccoli. Top with chicken pieces. Bake at 375 until chicken is done and rice soft, about 1 hour.
