RECIPE FOR CHICKEN AND WILD RICE CASSEROLE RECIPES

Steps:

• Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over medium heat, whisk in flour and thyme and cook for 1 minute.
• Gradually stir in broth and milk, stirring until thick and smooth.
• Stir in chicken and add salt and pepper; set aside.
• Grease a 1 1/2 quart shallow baking dish.
• Spread rice in prepared baking dish, sprinkle with the peas and then pour creamed chicken mixture over.
• Dot with remaining tablespoon of butter and sprinkle with bread crumbs and cheese which you mix together.
• Bake at 400° until hot and bubbly, about 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Melt the butter in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and about three-quarters of the scallions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the broccoli, chicken, rice, tomato, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste; stir to combine.
• Whisk the chicken broth and sour cream in a bowl, pour into the skillet and bring to a simmer. Stir in half each of the havarti and parmesan. Cover tightly with a lid or aluminum foil, transfer to the oven and bake until the rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
• Turn on the broiler. Uncover the skillet and sprinkle with the remaining havarti and parmesan, then broil until golden, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with the reserved scallions.
