Directions
Testament (Chicken-Rice) Casserole, Sometimes, more attention to the details is a little more bothersome but the end result pays off So it is with this casserole There is some pre-cooking involved (rice and chicken) but the superior flavor of the casserole makes it all worthwhile The recipe is not at all difficult but it does take just a bit longer to prepare than the traditonal quick casserole It took me a few weeks, off and on, to develop this recipe and, after a couple of trials, I found that the chopped artichoke hearts added just the right flavor to enhance the overall dish I gave a lot of attention to keeping the instructions clear on this one You can also make it up ahead, bake it, and freeze it for re-heating later I hope you enjoy it!, Great recipe! I cooked my chicken in an instant pot and made the process super easy Also, only put artichoke in half the casserole (my husband doesnt care for it) and we both enjoyed it very much with some garlic bread!, I really liked this casserole I don’t usually spend this much time on meals, but I was in a bad mood and it was somewhat theraputic I was looking for a good recipe using artichoke, and I found one! In the future I will probably brown the chicken in a pan rather than boil it, but that is just a preference of mine Unfortunately, my husband and kids do not like artichokes, so I won’t be making this very often I liked the addition!
