MAMAW'S CHICKEN AND RICE CASSEROLE



Mamaw's Chicken and Rice Casserole image

I grew up on this recipe, my Grandmother got it from a lady from church at a pot luck a long time ago! She passed it down to my mom and it's always been a family favorite. Quick and easy for school nights, and the leftovers are just as good! You can use less butter on top of course, my Momma and Mamaw always put the full stick on top (gotta love Southern ladies and their butter!)

MEMA'S CHICKEN SALAD



Mema's Chicken Salad image

This recipe has been used by my family for over 100 years. My mother was gifted this closely held favorite by her mother-in-law when she married my dad. It has been a staple in almost every family potluck or holiday party that I can remember. My mom served it at all of her end-of-the-year teacher appreciation luncheons and my grandmother served at every bridge club get-together with her friends. It's my husband's favorite and I love making it. It reminds me of really happy moments in my childhood. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 - chicken
4 - celery ribs
4 - eggs, hard boiled
sweet pickle relish
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon(s) white vinegar
1 tablespoon(s) yellow mustard
1 tablespoon(s) sugar
1 3/4 cup(s) mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Boil and debone a whole chicken. Finely chop/dice and put in a large mixing bowl. (Best results for boiling - cut whole chicken into similarly sized pieces. Put in large pot and just cover with water. Lightly salt. Bring to a boil and cook for about 30 minutes. Let cool completely before deboning). NOTE: You can use a whole rotisserie chicken or boil chicken thighs and breasts enough to make about 3 cups when finely chopped.
  • Add finely chopped celery and hard-boiled eggs (more or less to taste), sweet pickle relish and/or other add-ins you like. Some suggestions include sliced almonds, walnut or pecan pieces; diced apples (tart would be better) or craisins. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Blend together gently.
  • For the dressing: In a 2 cup measuring cup, pour in the vinegar, mustard, and sugar. Whisk until blended. Add to the mixture enough mayonnaise to reach the 2 cup line. Whisk again until well blended.
  • Pour dressing over chicken and add-ins and gently fold until all ingredients are well incorporated. Chill at least one hour before serving.
  • Serve on sandwiches or crackers, or with a simple salad. Perfect in mini tart shells as an hors d'oeuvres.

MAMA'S CHICKEN AND RICE



Mama's Chicken and Rice image

This recipe was a prerequisite to marrying my husband. I had to be able to make this exactly like my mother in law, or my John could not marry me. It is absolutely delicious and probably takes a year off my life every time I eat it, lol. For real though you have to try this, you will love it! You make the rice separately and can use any kind you like.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 2h20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 (8 ounce) jar Hormel dried beef
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (room temperature)
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups cooked white rice
2 tablespoons milk (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and prep your 13x9 casserole dish with foil and spray.
  • Rinse the dried beef slices under cold water and ring dry. Line the bottom of your dish with your slices.
  • Season chicken with salt and pepper and arrange in the dish on top of the beef slices. Place remaining slices on top of the chicken.
  • In a seperate bowl mix together cream of mushroom soup with the cream cheese. If this looks a little too thick for your taste add a dash of milk. Only a little at a time though, you don't want it runny. If you have trouble getting the cream cheese to break up all the way put it in the microwave for 30 second intervals until everything creams together smoothly.
  • Pour this mixture over the chicken, making sure its even. It is actually very important that it is even --
  • Cover with foil and bake for two hours. It seems long but if you get impatient you can tell the difference. 2 Hours makes this perfectly creamy and the chicken moist.
  • Serve this over hot white rice and enjoy!

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Combine the seasonings (paprika, thyme, lemon zest, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper) in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Add the chicken pieces, skin side down and sear till just golden brown. Turn and sear the other side. This should take about 5-7 minutes in total. Adjust heat if necessary. Transfer to a plate to cool slightly. Drain off most of the fat from the skillet leaving about 1 tbsp. If there isn't enough fat, add 1 tbsp of butter.
  • Return the skillet to the burner and add the onion. Sauté over medium heat till just starting to soften. Add the garlic and stir another 2 minutes to remove the raw taste. Then add the celery and 3/4 tsp salt to soften as well, about 3 minutes.

  • 1. Season the chicken all over with salt, pepper and cumin. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large frying pan (skillet) with a tightfitting lid over a medium-high heat until very hot – less of a gentle, wavy shimmer and more like aggressive lava when you move the pan. Add the chicken, skin-side down, and cook without moving until it easily releases from the pan, and skin is crispy and well browned, about 4–7 minutes. (Test the chicken at 4 minutes to check its resistance.) Use tongs to flip and brown the other side, about 3–6 minutes longer. Transfer chicken to a plate and set aside.
  • 2. Meanwhile, in the bottom of a small metal or sturdy bowl, grind the saffron and mix with hot water until dissolved.
  • 3. Reduce the heat to medium and add the chicken stock to the same pan, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom with a wooden spoon. Add the rice, juice of 1 lemon and saffron water then season with salt and stir to combine. There will probably be a little fat in the pan, which is great. If it’s charred or black though, rinse it out quickly and add 1 tablespoon of the oil to the rice/stock mixture.
  • 4. Cover with the lid, bring the liquid to an active boil and then lower the heat to maintain an active simmer. Remove the lid and lay the chicken, skin-side up, carefully on top. Cover and cook until the rice is tender, most of the liquid is absorbed and the chicken has finished cooking, about 15–20 minutes. Use this time to clean up, set the table and make sure your pepper mill is stocked.
