I have been asked so many times how I make my chicken casserole and it is the easiest recipe in the world. My older sister taught it to me years and years ago. It used to feed our whole family and that is a lot. My mom, dad, two of my sisters, two of my nieces, two of my nephews, my older son, and myself. Of course half of those are kids but still. It can easily feed at least 6 -8 people and its cheap and easy to make.
Ingredients:
boneless chicken breast (wait for a good sale and stock up! I got 20 lbs at $1.99/lb and separated each pack into 2lbs and put them in freezer bags)
2 cans of cream of chicken soup
Ritz crackers
flour (I use wheat)
oil
milk
First you start with the boneless chicken breast. I cut them into small chunks and rinse them. Then I put them in a bowl.
Then I roll the chicken in flour and coat each piece well. I usually dip the chicken in a beaten egg but its personal choice.
Then you would brown the chicken in oil. I use corn oil, a friend of mine uses olive oil. I had too much chicken for this pan but I did it anyways because I am lazy.
After the chicken is brown, I drain the oil and let the chicken sit in a colander. I then mix the cream of chicken soup with a cup and a half of milk in a glass casserole dish. Then I place the chicken throughout the dish. I then crush up two packs of Ritz crackers and spread them on top of it, make sure its all covered.
You can then place your casserole dish in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. I use this time to make my sides. I usually serve either Saffron rice or Long Grain and Wild Rice. I also serve homemade wheat mac n cheese noodles with Pepper Jack Velveeta and green beans.
Here it is! Super easy meal to feed the whole family and still have some leftovers for someone to take to work the next day. The last time I made it my family wanted corn on the cob instead of green beans. My 9 year old pointed out that we had an entire meal of yellow foods.
Try it and come back and let me know how it worked for you! And if you liked this post, be sure to use those little share buttons at the bottom to show your love!
