MAMAW'S CHICKEN AND RICE CASSEROLE



Mamaw's Chicken and Rice Casserole image

I grew up on this recipe, my Grandmother got it from a lady from church at a pot luck a long time ago! She passed it down to my mom and it's always been a family favorite. Quick and easy for school nights, and the leftovers are just as good! You can use less butter on top of course, my Momma and Mamaw always put the full stick on top (gotta love Southern ladies and their butter!)

Time 10h30m

Yield 2 Pies

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (9 inch) deep dish pastry pie crusts
1/4 cup butter (salted)
1 (7 ounce) package flaked coconut
1 cup pecans (rough chopped, the texture makes this pie what it is)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened (you can use full fat or 1/3 fat, but I wouldn't do fat free})
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 (8 ounce) containers whipped topping, thawed
1 (14 ounce) jar caramel ice cream topping (this salted caramel one is fantastic, just use unsalted butter, instead)

Steps:

  • Bake your pie shells according to package directions and let them cool completely.
  • While your pie shells are baking, melt the butter in a skillet over medium and add the pecans and coconut. Toast your coconut and pecans in the butter until they become golden brown (roughly 10 minutes). Keep stirring constantly -- these can scorch easily. Set them aside to let them cool.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk together until creamy. Fold in your whipped topping by hand -- be careful not to "break it down" too much, but still get it incorporated nicely (it's such a fine line, isn't it?).
  • Have your baked and cooled pie shells ready to fill -- it's time to start layering!
  • Start by using 1/2 of your cream cheese mixture and divide that evenly between the two pie shells (so, technically, each pie will get 1/4 of the mixture).
  • Drizzle 1/4 of your caramel sauce over the cream cheese mixture on each pie, use 1/4 per pie and 1/2 the jar total for this layer.
  • Sprinkle 1/4 of the pecan/coconut mixture over the caramel on each pie. Again, use 1/2 of the mixture total.
  • Repeat the layers, using the remaining ingredients. Place pies in the freezer overnight.
  • You'll pull them out about about 20-30 minutes before serving to let them thaw a bit. You can store them in your freezer for about a month. I double wrap mine in Press-N-Seal and then add an additional layer of foil on top of that, to prevent any freezer burn.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use a combination of light and dark meat chicken.
  • Be sure to cook the chicken until it is cooked through, but not overcooked, to prevent it from becoming dry.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your pie, such as carrots, celery, onions, and peas.
  • If you don't have time to make your own pie crust, you can use a store-bought one.
  • To prevent the pie crust from becoming soggy, brush it with an egg wash before baking.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
  • Serve the pie with a side of mashed potatoes, green beans, or salad.

Conclusion:

Maw Maw's Chicken Pie is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a family meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a chicken pie that will be the star of your next gathering.
