Cooking rice in the oven?

SIAP. I did a search but nothing came up.
Buddy of mine that belongs to a motorcycle club swears the absolutely best way to cook rice for a large group is to do it in the oven. He couldn't remember the recipe but promised to get it for me.
Anyone here done the rice in the oven cook method?

Use the same amount of rice and water you normally would. Preheat the oven to about 350F. Boil and pour the pre-measured water over the rice and stir. Cover tightly and put into the oven for about 30 minutes.

Thanks. Will be interesting to compare their "how much/how to" to this.

Not plain rice but a small pot of Jambalaya all the time. 350 for about an hour. The larger the volume the more you will need to cut back on the 2:1 ratio.

Worked for a chef chef from Nola at a fine dining establishment in college. He made rice pilaf/rice dishes in the oven. Same liquid/rice ratio, but brought it to a simmer and then stuck it in the oven with a lid. I usually do it that way, still.

I will try this one for "flavored" rice. TFS
BASIC COOKED RICE
2 cups uncooked rice
2 1/2 cups chicken stock*
1 1/2 tablespoons very finely chopped onion
1 1/2 tablespoons very finely chopped celery
1 1/2 tablespoons very finely chopped green bell pepper**
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
Pinch ground white pepper
Pinch ground cayenne pepper
Pinch ground black pepper
In a (5 x 9 x 2 1/2-inch) loaf pan, combine all ingredients; mix well. Seal pan snugly with aluminum foil.
Bake at 350 degrees F until rice is tender, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Serve immediately. However, you can count on the rice staying hot for 45 minutes and warm for 2 hours.
To reheat leftover rice, either use a double boiler or warm the rice in a skillet with unsalted butter.
*Use chicken stock if you are serving the rice with a chicken dish, seafood stock with a seafood dish, beef with a beef dish.
**If you make this ahead of time and store it, omit the bell peppers - they tend to sour quickly.
Makes 4 servings
