Scalloped Chicken Casserole image

This is another of my Mom's classic recipes. I have no idea where she got it but it is the ultimate comfort food for me! You can also add some frozen peas to this to make it a one-dish meal.

Time 2h5m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (4 lb) roasting chickens
2 cups shell macaroni
8 ounces shredded Velveeta cheese
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
3 cups chicken broth
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup melted margarine
2 -3 cups fresh breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Boil the chicken and shred meat off of bones (I always do this ahead of time).
  • Cook and drain macaroni shells.
  • In a large bowl combine broth and soup and mix flour into that mixture.
  • Add cooked macaroni, shredded chicken, cheese and seasonings to broth mixture and pour into a 9 x 13" pan.
  • Process 2-3 slices of white bread in a blender or food processor on crumb mode and mix with margarine. Sprinkle crumb mixture over the top of the casserole.
  • Bake at 325 degrees F for 30-35 minutes, until top is browned and cheese is melted.
  • *NOTE* I do not recommend using dried breadcrumbs as they make the dish too salty.
