Directions
Easy Chicken Pilaf Casserole, This wonderful chicken/rice casserole is a favorite in our house, and it is often requested for supper (Tip: any left over cooked chicken (or cooked turkey, I always freeze a whole cooked turkey breast) just freeze and use in recipes that call for cooked chicken, that way you will always have it on hand, and ready to use) Also, this recipe is great made with cooked turkey instead of chicken Prep time does not include cooking the rice , My family loved it!! I doubled the recipe, and used evaporated milk and whole milk to replace the half-and-half I forgot to buy 🙂 I kinda forgot the mushrooms also, but my kids don’t like them anyway 🙂 used some uncooked chicken breasts I had, chopped them into small pieces and then sauteed them with seasoning and fresh garlic Oh, and I added extra cheese!! Mmmm! This would also be good with a bread crumb topping, but I just sprinkled the top with paprika for color this time This was very easy, tasty and versatile! I will definitely make this again and try it out with different meats, vegetables and cheeses A keeper for sure!
