• 1 (10.5-ounce) can of cream of chicken soup
• 1 (10.5-ounce) can of cream of celery soup
• 1 (10.5-ounce) can of cream of mushroom soup
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• ½ cup butter, sliced into small pats

Directions:

1. Prepare the Dish
   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a casserole dish to prevent sticking.

   In the prepared dish, mix together the chicken cubes, water, rice, cream of chicken soup, cream of celery soup, and cream of mushroom soup. Season generously with salt and black pepper.
3. Add Butter
   Arrange the butter pats evenly on top of the mixture, ensuring the top layer is well-covered for richness.
4. Bake
   Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 60 to 75 minutes, or until the rice is soft and the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
5. Rest and Serve
   Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for 10–15 minutes to set before serving.
