Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, and green onion; cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in shrimp, condensed soups, and tomatoes with green chiles; bring to a boil. (15 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Off heat, stir in rice; season with salt. Pour shrimp-rice mixture into a baking dish; cover tightly with aluminum foil. (5 minutes)

04

Step
1 hrs

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove foil, stir, and bake until bubbling, about 30 minutes more. (60 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a dash of hot sauce or a sprinkle of Cajun seasoning to the shrimp-rice mixture before baking.
Feel free to experiment with different types of rice. Brown rice or long-grain rice can be substituted for white rice.
If you don't have condensed French onion soup, you can use a similar amount of beef broth or chicken broth with a pinch of onion powder.
Ensure the baking dish is tightly covered with aluminum foil to prevent the rice from drying out during baking.

    This recipe is a family favorite! So easy to make and always a hit.

  • Maye Fay

    I used brown rice instead of white rice, and it turned out great, but it took a little longer to cook.

  • Camren Blocklockman

    I like to add a can of corn for extra sweetness and texture.

  • Zita Collinsjerde

    The rice was a bit too wet for my liking, so I reduced the amount of soup slightly next time.

  • Ceasar Croninconn

    This is a great base recipe. I've experimented with different vegetables and spices, and it always turns out delicious.

  • Geovanny Connellyvonrueden

    I found that cooking the shrimp separately and adding them in at the end prevents them from becoming rubbery.

  • Cleta Schultz

    I added a little Cajun seasoning for extra flavor, and it was amazing!

  • Dena Towne

    Definitely a keeper recipe!

  • Francisco Barrows
