There\u2019s nothing more comforting than a bubbly, creamy casserole for dinner. Filled with tasty ingredients like creamy chicken and cheese-stuffed olives, topped with a crunchy and cheesy topping, this dish is certain to be a crowd-pleaser whenever you need a weeknight dinner in a pinch.<\/p>\n
This recipe for chicken casserole starts with a \u201cHoly Trinity\u201d mirepoix, a Cajun or Creole combination that uses celery, onion and green bell pepper. The casserole ingredients are then tossed together and spread in a casserole dish, then baked until bubbly. Add the buttery crunchy topping and bake for another five minutes. You\u2019ll have a comforting casserole on your table in less than one hour. Here\u2019s how to make chicken casserole.<\/p>\n
In a large skill, saute the celery, onion and green bell pepper in butter. Remove from the heat and stir in the cooked chicken, sliced mushrooms, olives, condensed cream of chicken soup, milk and cooked egg noodles.<\/p>\n
Transfer the chicken mixture to a 2 quart baking dish. Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 325\u00b0F for 25 minutes.<\/p>\n
While the casserole is baking, combine the cornflakes, shredded cheddar cheese and butter in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the topping evenly on top. Bake for another five minutes uncovered or until the cheese is melty.<\/p>\n
This chicken casserole will stay good in the fridge for three or four days. You can heat it up either in the microwave or an oven-safe dish at 325\u00b0 until the casserole is warm and bubbly.<\/p>\n
If you don’t plan on finishing the leftovers in that short period of time, store it in the freezer with freezer-safe containers. When you want to eat it, partially thaw the containers in the refrigerator overnight and then bake the leftovers at 325\u00b0 until the casserole is heated through completely.<\/p>\n
Yes! This recipe is easy to prep and freeze to cook for a rainy day. Prep the casserole without the topping in a freezer-safe casserole dish, sealed tightly at the top. This chicken casserole will last in the freezer for up to three months. When it\u2019s time to cook, partially thaw the casserole in the refrigerator overnight, then bake as normal. Don\u2019t forget to make the topping!<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t have a can of condensed chicken soup? You can swap it out for a can of condensed mushroom soup or condensed celery soup instead. It will change the flavor slightly, but will still cook in the same way you need it to.<\/p>\n
Yes! Cooked chicken or shredded chicken are both acceptable for this recipe. This casserole is an easy rotisserie chicken recipe; grab a whole bird at the grocery store to shred up. You can also roast a chicken and shred it for a weeknight meal such as this one.<\/p>\n
While you could swap out the chicken with a plant-based meat alternative, this casserole is also tasty with vegetables alone. Swap out the chicken for more vegetables, like broccoli, green beans or extra mushrooms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
