Got Leftovers?

As the subject states, this is an excellent use for leftovers! Not only is it delicious, it's quick and easy! I know you all know what I'm talking about when I mention the rotisserie chickens you can buy in the deli section at the supermarket! I personally don't purchase them because I only like white meat (and crispy skin!) but I don't think the purchase is worth it for the amount that I actually enjoy. This recipe can utilize any section of meat that you prefer (boneless of course) and turkey would taste great with this, too! This is a good recipe to keep in your arsenal of Thanksgiving leftover recipes!  


Chicken and Stuffing Casserole
Yields: 3 servings

14 oz. boneless skinless chicken breast, cubed and cooked
1 c. prepared stuffing
1 tbsp. butter, unsalted
½ c. onion, finely chopped
1 c. cream of mushroom, undiluted
1 c. water
1 c. rice, uncooked

Preheat oven to 375 F. In a small skillet, melt the butter and saute the onions until soft. 
Remove and set aside. In an 8"x 8" baking dish, spread the chicken evenly on the bottom. 
In a separate bowl, combine the mushroom, onion, water, and rice.
 

Pour over the chicken and spread the stuffing evenly over the top. Bake for 30 minutes.

That's it! It's that simple! You could also add some leftover veggies from the night before as well. As I've said before, a casserole is a great place to use up all kinds of leftovers! Enjoy!
