For a tasty and balanced dinner, this casserole is absolutely perfect! A lot of times we get carried away with elaborate meals that involve a complicated, long list of ingredients and a lot of concentration .we wanted to tone things down a bit and simplify the process, while still getting a hearty meal with great flavor.
Boiling chicken is not our preferred method of cooking it, because you can sometimes lose the best flavor, but we’ve fixed that problem by cooking all of our ingredients in chicken broth! This boosts the flavor and keeps the chicken incredibly moist. Once everything has had its time in the Jacuzzi, transfer it all to your baking dish and pop it in the oven to heat through and finish cooking. Sounds like a plan to us!
