Cheesy Chicken and Mushroom Casserole is exactly what you need when you are craving a taste of home. It’s the kind of thing your grandmother would make for you on a cold day when you’ve been out playing in the snow. It is comfort food at its best, and I’m excited to share this recipe with you. Let’s get to it.
The ingredients for the chicken and mushroom casserole are olive oil, chicken breast, mushrooms, onions, garlic, chicken stock, rosemary, parsley, basmati rice, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper.
The prep for the cheesy chicken and mushroom casserole is to slice the mushrooms, onion, garlic, and chicken breast. Chop the herbs. Grate the cheese and measure out the rice and chicken stock. In total, you want about 1 cup of sliced mushrooms, 1 to 1 1/2 cups sliced onion, 1 teaspoon sliced garlic, 2 teaspoons minced rosemary, 1/4 cup chopped parsley, 1 cup grated mozzarella, 1 cup grated cheddar cheese, 1 cup basmati rice, and 2 cups chicken stock.
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add in 2 tablespoons of olive oil along with the sliced chicken. Cook the chicken for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until browned. Add in the onions and mushrooms and cook for another 3 minutes. Add the garlic, cook for 1 minute, then add the herbs, chicken stock, rice and seasoning. Bring the stock to a boil and take it off the heat.
Did you know that I wrote a cookbook? It’s called the 5-Ingredient Cookbook for Men (of course, it is for everyone). Get your copy today at Amazon in Canada here, and Amazon in the US here, or wherever fine books are sold.
To finish the cheesy chicken and mushroom casserole, stir half the cheese into the pan, then sprinkle the rest over the top. Cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid or foil, and bake for 25 minutes at 350°f. Take the pan out of the oven and let it rest, covered for 5 minutes. Take the lid off and serve or put it under the broiler for a few minutes to brown the cheese.
Casseroles are great for feeding a lot of people with as little effort as possible. They are also great for getting that home-cooked meal feeling.
