Preheat oven to 180°C. Wash chicken breasts and pat dry; set aside.
Combine cream of mushroom soup with fresh milk and stir well to remove lumps. Set aside 1/2 cup of mixture for later.
Mix remaining soup mixture with chopped garlic, chopped onion, ½ pack of the dry onion soup mix and rice. Optional: sprinkle some ground black pepper.
Mix well and pour into a baking dish. (Can be a casserole dish or pyrex glass dish. Mine’s a round, 8″ diameter by 2″ depth pyrex glass dish).
Place carrots and capsicum on rice mixture followed by chicken pieces. Combine reserved soup mixture with mushrooms. Spread over chicken.
Sprinkle with remaining dry onion soup mix, thyme, and Parmesan cheese.
Cover tightly with aluminium foil and bake in a 180°C oven for 1 hour.
Remove foil and continue baking for 15 to 20 minutes longer, or until chicken is tender and liquid is absorbed. If the dish still looks watery, you may want to increase temperature to 190 or 200°C to speed up the evaporation. Do sample from the centre of the dish to check whether rice has soaked up the soup mixture.
