i have been having a lot of requests recently for my chicken poppyseed casserole. i have been making this recipe a lot since it is my go-to meal that i make for families, like who have had a baby or just a surgery or something. and there have been a lot of babies recently! so, here is the requested recipe. it is not the healthiest one out there. i calls for one can of cream of chicken soup. i am not a big of most canned sups for the ridiculous amount of sodium (and usually all the fat too). but this is one of only two recipes that i use with cream of chicken so it won't kill me. yet. and i do use the healthy request version of this soup. and since i do, i use the full fat sour cream so as to not lose too much of the good fat-flavor. okay, on with the recipe.
chicken poppyseed casserole
you need:
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 8 oz container of sour cream
3 cups chopped, cooked chicken
(if in a rush i will use 1 rotesserie chicken instead of cooking the chicken myself)
1 palm full of poppyseeds
1 1/2 cups crushed ritz crackers (one of those tubes of crackers)
1/4 cup butter, melted
what to do:
preheat oven to 350.
combine first 4 ingredients; spoon into a lightly greased dish (i usually use 8x8).
combine crushed crackers and butter; sprinkle over chicken mixture.
Bake, uncovered for 30 minutes.
and let me tell you that kids love this meal. it is a great mild and tasty casserole and i have never had anyone not like (to my knowledge).
i made a double recipe for our home group over the weekend but took no pictures. sorry. but seriously, try this. it is easy. trust me. i am trustworthy. you will love it!
