It won't be long till we are back in NY and I need to use up what I have in the freezer. I had a bag of chicken legs and Gabe really doesn't care for them BUT if I cook them up and add them to a casserole, that's a different story.
The recipe is from Allrecipes. I'm a sucker for recipes with names and soon as I spotted "Aunt Jewel's" it was almost in the oven.
Next time I would make my own cream soup. Reduces the amount of sodium.
Ingredients:
3 pounds skinless, boneless chicken
breast meat ( used about 3 pounds of chicken legs- roasted them and cut up the meat into bite size pieces)
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream
of chicken soup
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup
1 (10.75 ounce) can milk
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 (6 ounce) package seasoned
cornbread stuffing mix
Directions:
1- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
2 Place chicken in a large saucepan full of lightly salted water. Bring to a boil; boil for about 30 minutes, or until chicken is cooked. Remove chicken from pan, reserving broth. Cut chicken into bite size pieces and place in bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. ( I roasted the chicken legs first and I had chicken broth in the fridge that I already made)
3. Mix together cream of chicken soup and cream of celery soup in a medium size bowl. Fill one empty soup can with milk, and mix milk with soups. Pour mixture over chicken. Combine stuffing and broth in a small bowl and mix together. Spoon mixture over casserole.
4. Bake for 45 minutes.
Yummy, this is just the kind of casserole I would love. I used to have one that called for cream of corn soup and a can of corn. It was like eating Thanksgiving. I can't find cream of corn soup any more. The corn gave it a bit of sweetness.....I am drooling now thinking about it. I did make it one time with Cream of Chicken soup.....Thanks Linda for this one, I have to make it now.
ReplyDeleteThis looks good. And Myra I think I know where you can get a cream of corn soup. In Kentucky they sell it. And my friend has a recipe for it. I will see if I can get it for you. Chris
ReplyDeleteI bet Leda was one happy lady seeing you coming with her dinner. No doubt she enjoyed every last bite. That's a big warm hug straight out of the oven. Mmmmmmm. You're an awesome neighbor and she's gonna miss you something fierce when you leave for the summer.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda.
You are so right Carol, Leda is going to miss Linda really fierce. I wish Linda was my neighbor.
DeleteThanks Chris....I had written to Campbells and asked if it was still being sold. They told me it was, but not in my area. I would appreciate a recipe, yummy.

ReplyDeleteFor the record, I'm with Gabe on chicken legs...not really wild about them unless they are "hidden." I would happily eat them like this though! Thank you for sharing, Linda.
