Chicken Normandy Casserole
Do you need something to do with your leftover cooked chicken? Here is a great way to put that chicken to good use. This recipe will feed 8-10 people or is fantastic as leftovers. What a great combination of stuffing, chicken, celery, carrots and more. I love this recipe because it is made up ahead of time and refrigerated. You can even leave it overnight in the refrigerator and bake it the next day. Or you can freeze it, thaw it out and bake it. Just make sure you let it sit at room temperature for about an hour if refrigerated and an hour after it’s thawed, if frozen.

Spray a 9” x 13” oven safe
pan with cooking oil.
In a medium bowl combine the dry stuffing
ingredients, melted butter and water.
Mix with a fork until all of the water is absorbed.
Spread half of the stuffing mixture
on the bottom of the prepared pan.
In a medium bowl add the chicken,
celery, onions, mayonnaise and salt.

Mix well with a spoon.
Carefully spread mixture over the crust.
Top with the other half of the stuffing mixture.
In a small bowl use a fork and
combine the eggs and milk.
Pour milk & eggs over the chicken mixture.
Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
You also can freeze it to use at a later date.
An hour before baking, remove casserole
from the refrigerator (if frozen let thaw first).
Spread the soup over the top.
Bake in a 325 degree oven for 40 minutes.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle
with the shredded cheese.
Bake another 10 minutes.
Slice into serving size pieces and serve.

It definitely was! Thank you!
That really looks good. Last night, I made a chicken pot pie…my first. It turned out okay!
WTG! I love chicken pot pie too.
