Peas and pearl onions are perfect companions for chicken and rice. You could add mushrooms if you like and maybe carrots or broccoli, whatever floats your boat!
The weather is chilly and rainy and there’s nothing quite as heartening and comforting as a chicken casserole to warm you up.
Make this the next time you want a tasty supper in one dish…
It will stretch your food dollar and fill the tummies in your family!

ReplyDeleteChicken and rice are basic, comfort food. The cheese sprinkled biscuits on top make it a favorite family treat with the youngsters aiming at the biscuits. I suppose it's OK to use chicken and rice leftovers.
Chicken and rice leftovers would be perfect for this, Duta! It's still chilly and rainy here so it's a good warm meal to eat and all in one pan makes it easy too. Have a great week, my friend!
DeletePam, Love chicken and rice casseroles...especially with the biscuits on top! Our version would delete the pimento and pearl onions and substitute onion flakes (it's a texture thing with me) and then add peas, a bit extra cheese and red pepper flakes. Have a terrific month of May! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
ReplyDeleteYour version sounds great to me, Dave! I get it with the texture thing. Peas and the cheese are really good with it and red pepper flakes would add a little or lot of heat. Yum! Thanks and you have a terrific month of May also! Take care
DeleteThis kinda reminds me of chicken pot pie :-)) Those biscuits look so goooood!
ReplyDeleteHi Angie! You're right on spot! It reeks of pot pie, but maybe a little easier to make, no pastry crust involved. The biscuits were awesome! :-))) You have a great fun week! Take care
