POPPY SEED CHICKEN & NOODLE CASSEROLE



Poppy Seed Chicken & Noodle Casserole image

I looked all around and couldn't find this recipe that came with noodles. I can't imagine it without noodles!

Provided by fressy

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h

Yield 1 9x13, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 -3 cups cooked chicken (I use the fully cooked rotisserie chicken from the store)
16 ounces sour cream
10 ounces cream of chicken soup
35 Ritz crackers (one whole package)
16 ounces wide egg noodles
1/2 cup butter
poppy seed

Steps:

  • Cook a little over half the bag of egg noodles until done.
  • In a bowl,combine the chicken, cream of chicken soup, and sour cream. Mix well.
  • In a 9x13 take a small chunk of cold butter and rub the bottom of the pan. This insures that the noodles will not stick or become crispy. (I find that this is the only way that works for me. Using spray Pam has always made my noodles on the side crispy.)
  • Spread noodles over greased pan.
  • Spread the chicken mixture on top making sure to cover all the noodles well.
  • Melt the stick of butter and crumble the whole package of Ritz crackers in it and mix until crackers are saturated. Spread on top of chicken mixture.
  • Sprinkle Poppy Seeds on top.
  • Cook uncovered at 350 for 30 minute or until hot.

POPPY SEED CHICKEN CASSEROLE



POPPY SEED CHICKEN CASSEROLE image

Categories     Chicken     Bake     Low Fat     Kid-Friendly

Yield 8-10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2.5 lbs boneless chicken breasts
1 lb boneless chicken thighs
1 can cream of chicken soup (healthy request or fat-free)
2 cups (16 oz) light sour cream
2 Tbsp poppy seeds
1 cup chicken broth
1 sleeve buttery whole wheat crackers

Steps:

  • 1. Cook the chicken breasts and thighs using your favorite cooking method. I usually put in slow cooker with a cup of water for 4-6 hours on LOW. This also gives you your needed chicken broth. Shred or chop cooked chicken. If you are in a real rush, you can even buy a rotisserie chicken and shred that. 2. In large bowl, mix: soup, sour cream, poppy, seeds, and chicken broth. Mix in shredded chicken. 3. Spread chicken mixture into 9 x 13 casserole coated with cooking spray. 4. Top with crushed crackers. Spray top with cooking spray. I cannot bring myself to melt a stick of butter and pour it over the crackers, like many recipes suggest. I'll take my butter in a slice of pound cake for dessert. Trust me, the crackers will brown into a nice crunchy topping. 5. Cover with foil. Bake 30 min at 350 degrees. Remove cover and bake an additional 10 minutes until crust is brown and casserole is bubbly.
