CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM CASSEROLE II
This is a great 'after work' meal for two people. I've been experimenting with meals for 2 since we'll be 'empty nesters' in the Fall. This is very tasty over steamed white rice with a green salad on the side.

Tips:
- Choose the right mushrooms. For a rich, earthy flavor, use cremini or portobello mushrooms. For a milder flavor, use white mushrooms.
- Slice the mushrooms evenly. This will help them cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. Cook the mushrooms in batches if necessary to prevent them from steaming.
- Season the mushrooms well. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good options.
- Use a good quality chicken broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the casserole.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Cook it just until it is cooked through to prevent it from becoming dry.
- Use a variety of vegetables. In addition to mushrooms, you can also add other vegetables to the casserole, such as carrots, celery, and peas.
- Top the casserole with a crispy topping. A breadcrumb topping or a puff pastry crust are both good options.
