How to make Leftover Chicken Casserole

Step 1

To make this delicious chicken casserole recipe, pre-heat an oven to 180 degree Celsius and spray a casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray. Meanwhile, boil the rice in water. Once done, strain the excess water and keep aside the cooked rice.

Step 2

Now heat oil in a frying pan over moderate flame. Once the oil is sufficiently hot, add garlic and onion in the pan. Saute the onions till they turn slightly pinkish brown in colour. Add the capsicum, corn, 1/4 cup of chicken stock, thyme and pepper. Cook the ingredients for approximately 3-4 minutes or till the capsicum softens.

Step 3

Stir in the remaining stock, cooked rice, sour cream and mustard. Add the chicken and remove from heat. Add 1/3 of the cheese and parsley. Transfer the mix to the prepared casserole dish and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Cook for approximately 20-25 minutes until the casserole is heated through and the cheese has melted.

Step 4

Once it's done, serve the Chicken Casserole in smaller portions and pair it with mashed potatoes and scrambled eggs. Enjoy this chicken recipe as breakfast or even brunch.
