Cashew Chicken Casserole image

This is unique and fast because you do not have to cook the macaroni first! Prep time does not include overnight refrigeration. If you do not have time, just omit the overnight refigeration. I have done that in the past with no problems.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had used less cayenne pepper.

I'm not usually a fan of chicken casseroles, but this one was really good. The chicken was cooked perfectly, and the sauce was rich and flavorful. I especially liked the addition of the cashews.
