EASY CHICKEN BOUDINE

Easy Chicken Boudine image

Easy & very tasty chicken & noodles. I use a rotisserie chicken to save time. Good way to use left-over chicken also. I adapted this from a Paula Deen recipe so it is lower in sodium and fat. In addition to being delicious, it can be made ahead & refrigerated, cooked then frozen, or enjoyed right out of the oven.

CHICKEN BOUDINE

Chicken Boudine image

This is a Paula Deen recipe I found. It has become a household favorite. It makes a large pan, more than we can eat at one time. I use my sealer mate, divide what's left and freeze for later use. This dish is great by its self or serve with your favorite veggies. This is a very worthy recipe! Note: I usually double the noodles...

Ingredients

2 c egg noodles, cooked (i use 4 to 6 cups cooked noodles)
2 10 3/4 ounce cans cream of mushroom soup
1/2 c chicken broth
1/4 c dry sherry
4 c cooked chicken, chopped
3 c grated sharp cheese, your choice, divided
2 1/4 oz package slivered almonds, toasted
1/4 c pimentos, drained
4 oz can mushrooms, drained
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. NOTE: I boil boneless chicken breast for this recipe. Once done, I cut into bite size pieces. I would think you could used roasted or baked chicken as well.
2. In a large bowl, toss together the noodles, soup, broth, and sherry. Add the chicken, 2 cups of the cheese, the almonds, pimento, mushrooms, and salt and pepper, to taste, and toss gently to combine. Transfer the mixture to a greased 13 by 9 by 2-inch casserole and top with remaining cheese.
3. Bake for 30 minutes, or until bubbly.

Tips:

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will ensure that your boudin has the best flavor and texture.
Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breast is a delicate meat, so it's important to cook it just until it is cooked through. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
Season the chicken generously: Use a variety of spices and herbs to flavor the chicken. This will help to create a delicious and flavorful boudin.
Use a good quality sausage casing: The sausage casing will help to hold the boudin together and give it a nice shape. Make sure to rinse the sausage casing thoroughly before using it.
Cook the boudin slowly and gently: This will help to prevent the boudin from splitting or bursting.
Serve the boudin with your favorite sides: Boudin is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or green beans.

Conclusion:

Chicken boudin is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own liking. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting way to cook chicken, give chicken boudin a try.
