It sure doesn't get much easier than this Club Chicken Casserole if you are looking for a quick recipe to feed your family on a busy weeknight. I mean how can you go wrong with chicken and rice?
This casserole is even easier to make if you use a rotisserie chicken as I do. For about $7 I usually get two or three good dishes out of it. It might be a little more work taking the meat off the bones but I will find it easier than baking or frying up some chicken then cutting it into bite-size pieces.
What I also love about this versatile recipe is that you can easily customize it for your audience. If you are feeding a bunch of picky eaters you can substitute the green chilies and/or pimentos for anything you want like mushrooms or corn. Whatever you have on hand.
The use of bread crumbs as a topping is completely optional as well. I personally like a little crunch with my casseroles so I used about half a cup of Italian seasoned bread crumbs. If you don't have any on hand, you can substitute for regular bread crumbs, panko bread crumbs or nothing at all!
Make sure you take a look at all my other Casserole Recipes. I'm sure you will find a recipe or two to feed your hungry family! Some of my favorite casseroles to make are my Italian Tuna Casserole, my Chili Chicken Casserole, my Turkey Noodle Casserole.
