Ingredients
• 4 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie works great!)
• 6 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
• 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup (or homemade)
• ½ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
• ½ cup mayonnaise or Miracle Whip
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (divided)
• ½ cup frozen peas (optional)
• 1 cup crushed Ritz crackers (about 30 crackers)
• 2 tbsp melted butter or olive oil
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch or 2-quart baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine chicken, bacon, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, mayo, ¾ cup cheddar, and peas (if using). Mix well.
- Transfer mixture to the baking dish and smooth the top.
- In a small bowl, mix crushed Ritz crackers and melted butter. Sprinkle evenly over the casserole.
- Top with remaining ¼ cup cheddar.
- Bake 30–35 minutes, until bubbly and golden on top.
