Directions

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Bring the wild rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender but not mushy, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain off any excess liquid, fluff the rice with a fork, and cook uncovered 5 minutes more.
While the rice cooks, heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until completely browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Combine the rice, chicken, green beans, mushroom soup, and mayonnaise in a large baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 45 minutes.

"This was delicious! I only had Miracle Whip so I used 1/2 cup of that instead of a whole cup. I also used white rice and topped the casserole with cheese. I am watching my fiancee scarf it down str..." See moreaight from the casserole dish as I type. Thanks for the recipe!"

"i've made this for years but make a few changes: shred the chicken instead of "chunk" it, omit oil (not at all needed), use light sour cream instead of mayo (to make healthier, altho the mayo tastes..." See more great too!), use low sodium soup, use low sodium chicken broth instead of water (low sodium b/c uncle ben's wild rice seasoning packet is so salty). and then when it's finished, crumble fried onion rings on top, or cheese, or both! and broil til brown it really is a delicious recipe, and coming from someone who can't stand canned green beans, that's saying a lot."
