Chicken Crouton Casserole Recipes

THE BEST PARMESAN CHICKEN BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Coat the bottom of a 9x13 inch casserole dish with olive oil, and sprinkle with garlic and hot red pepper flakes.
• Arrange the chicken breasts in bottom of the dish, and pour marinara sauce over chicken. Sprinkle basil over marinara sauce, and top with half the mozzarella cheese, followed by half the Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle on the croutons, then top with the remaining mozzarella cheese and remaining Parmesan cheese.
• Bake in preheated oven until cheese and croutons are golden brown and the chicken is no longer pink inside, about 35 minutes to an hour, depending on the shape and thickness of your chicken breasts. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a chicken breast should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

ZUCCHINI CHICKEN CASSEROLE WITH CROUTONS

Steps:

• Slice zucchini 1/4 inch thick. Blanch briefly in salted water until crisp/tender then drain.
• Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet and saute carrots and onions until tender, not brown.
• Fold in soup, sour cream and about 1/2 C of the chicken broth and about 2/3 of the croutons. Gently fold drained zucchini into mixture. If the mixture seems a little on the dry side then more of the chicken broth until you get the right consistency. The croutons will absorb some of the moisture as the dish cooks so you want the casserole to be nice and juicy before you put it in the oven.
• Place in greased casserole and put remaining croutons on top. Melt the remaining 2 T of butter and pour over the casserole. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes.
