chicken casserole
Oven-baked fowl medley
A chicken casserole is a baked dish combining chicken pieces with vegetables, sauce, and often a starch like rice, pasta, or potatoes, cooked together in a single deep dish.
The term covers countless variations—from creamy mushroom versions to those topped with breadcrumbs or cheese.
Like most casseroles, it's homey comfort food that feeds a crowd: I'm bringing a chicken casserole to the potluck.
