Super Simple Chicken Alfredo Pierogi Casserole Recipes

SUPER SIMPLE CHICKEN ALFREDO PIEROGI CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350˚F.
• Add a couple tablespoons of oil to a pan/skillet and heat over a medium heat. Add onions and mushrooms, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. After about 7 to 8 minutes add garlic in and cook for a couple more minutes, until onions are softened.
• In a large bowl add Alfredo sauce, 3/4 of the bacon, chicken, Italian seasoning and sauteed onions and mushrooms. Stir to combine.
• Place pierogies into a 9x13 casserole dish. Pour chicken mixture over the top, cover in cheese and remaining bacon.
• Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.

BAKED CHICKEN ALFREDO

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.
• Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic; saute until golden, about 30 seconds. Stir in cream cheese until smooth. Add milk; stir until there are no lumps. Lower heat to medium. Add 3/4 of the Parmesan cheese, parsley, Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce is smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over low heat. Season chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and garlic powder on both sides. Cook chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 6 minutes per side. Cut chicken into 1/2-inch cubes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Butter bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Cover bottom with a layer of pasta. Place half of the chicken cubes on top. Pour 1/2 of the sauce over the chicken. Repeat layering pasta, chicken, and sauce. Sprinkle top with remaining Parmesan cheese. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until sauce is bubbly, about 15 minutes. Remove aluminum foil and bake until cheese is golden, about 5 minutes more.

CHICKEN PIEROGIES ALFREDO

• Boil pierogies for 5 - 7 minutes, drain.
• In large bowl, combine cooked pierogies, cooked chicken, Alfredo sauce, frozen peas, pimentos, and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Stir thoroughly; a rubber spatula works well to stir without breaking the pierogies.
• Pour mixture into ungreased casserole dish. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan on top. Cover dish with foil.
• Bake 30 to 45 minutes at 350 with foil. Remove foil and bake another 15 minutes, until top is browned.
