POTLUCK CHICKEN CASSEROLE

Categories     Casseroles

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 c mushrooms, freshly chopped
3 Tbsp onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 Tbsp butter
3 Tbsp all purpose flour
1.25 c milk
3/4 c mayonnaise
4 c chicken, cooked and cubed
3 c long grain rice, cooked
1 c celery, chopped
1 c peas, thawed
2 oz pimentos, drained
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
3/4 c corn flake cereal, crushed

Steps:

  • 1. In a saucepan over medium heat, saute mushrooms, onion and garlic in 3 tablespoons butter until tender; stir in flour until thoroughly combined.
  • 2. Gradually add milk; bring to a boil.
  • 3. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened and bubbly.
  • 4. Remove from heat; stir in mayonnaise until smooth.
  • 5. Add chicken, rice, celery, peas, pimientos, lemon juice, salt and pepper; mix well.
  • 6. Spoon into an ungreased 12x9x2 inch baking dish.
  • 7. Melt remaining butter; toss with cornflakes and sprinkle over casserole.
  • 8. Bake, uncovered, at 350 for 30-35 minutes or until bubbly.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are the best choice for this recipe. They're flavorful and juicy, and the bone helps to keep the meat moist.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice for this recipe. It has a delicious flavor and it's good for you too.
  • Don't crowd the chicken in the pot. If you crowd the chicken, it won't cook evenly. Make sure there's enough space between each piece of chicken so that the air can circulate.
  • Cook the chicken until it's cooked through. The chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check the temperature with a meat thermometer.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving. Letting the chicken rest before serving allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

This potluck chicken recipe is a surefire hit at any gathering. It's easy to make, delicious, and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a dish to bring to a potluck, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
