Cheesy Ritz Chicken Casserole

Ingredients

  • 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of chicken & herb soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 medium onion, finely diced
  • 2 large chicken breasts, seasoned, cooked and cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (I used a blend of Italian and mild cheddar)
  • 1-3/4 sleeves Ritz crackers (about 50-55 crackers), crushed
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and grease a 2.5-quart casserole dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the soup, sour cream and onion, mixing until well combined.
  3. Fold in the chicken and cheese until well blended.
  4. Spread the chicken and soup mixture into the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine the crushed Ritz crackers and melted butter and stir until all the cracker pieces are well coated.
  6. Sprinkle the cracker mixture evenly over top of the chicken and soup mixture.
  7. Bake, uncovered, for about 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the cracker topping is golden brown.
  8. Serve alongside a salad or your favorite steamed vegetables.
