Chicken And Rice Casserole With Cream Of Mushroom Soup
"This easy Chicken and Rice Casserole with Cream of Mushroom Soup and shredded rotisserie chicken is a simple, delicious, and comforting dinner that you can make ahead. The recipe takes advantage of a few shortcuts for quick prep, but adds herbs and vegetables for plenty of fresh flavor. Serve the casserole with a simple green salad, biscuits, or a loaf of crusty bread to round out the meal! I've shared quite a few different chicken and rice casserole recipes over the years -- from dump-and-bake options to made-from-scratch dishes -- but this particular dinner is definitely one of my favorites! It wins major points for ease (I always appreciate a kitchen shortcut), but doesn't sacrifice fresh, homemade taste. While cream of mushroom soup is a simple base, the meal really gets its flavor from sautéed mushrooms, onions and celery, along with herbs like chives, parsley and thyme. You also can't beat a crunchy, buttery, Ritz cracker and French fried onion topping. This is your grandmother's old school chicken and rice casserole -- elevated!"
