Chicken And Corn Soup
Pasta Recipes With Chicken by Eldath Mon
Take your leftover chicken to new heights with a few more ingredients. Big flavor impact in this low fat Recipe. You can omit the salt and potato chips and use lemon pepper and cereal instead if you are on a low salt diet.
CRUNCHY CHICKEN BAKE
You will need:
* 2 tablespoons butter (margarine or olive oil may be used instead of butter)
* 2 small onions, finely chopped
* 3/4 cup celery, diced
* 1 scant teaspoon of salt (optional – leave out if you are on a reduced salt diet )
* 2 teaspoons lemon juice
* 1 can each cream of mushroom soup and cream of celery soup (10 3/4 ounce cans) Use a store brand for lower sodium content. Read the labels. (You can substitute 1 can evaporated milk and one packet ‘HERB-OX no sodium’ chicken bouillon for each can of soup)
* 1 cup mayonnaise (a lite mayo is fine)
* 2 cups cooked chicken, diced or cut into small pieces
* 2 cups cooked rice (this could be left over as well)
* 1/2 cup slivered almonds
* 4 hard-boiled eggs,chopped
* 1 to 1 1/2 cups peas (I prefer frozen as they are lower in salt, but you can use canned- drain well)
* 2 cups crushed potato chips (again you can use a low salt chip or substitute corn flakes)
Turn on the oven,setting it to 375 degrees.
In a skillet melt the butter over medium heat.Add onions and celery.Cook until soft. Meanwhile in a small bowl mix the salt and lemon juice together. Add the onion and celery mixture. Stir in both soups and the mayonnaise. Be sure they are well mixed.
Stir in the chicken, rice,peas,almonds,and eggs. Pour the mixture into a greased casserole dish. A 2 quart rectangle dish is best but you can use whatever you have.
Sprinkle the crushed potato chips (or corn flakes) on top and bake until hot and bubbly. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes before serving
Serves 6-8
I don’t know about you but in my house anything that includes cheese will get good reviews. Here is a cheesy casserole that the whole family loves. I have made some substitution suggestions for those on salt reduced diets.
