Kathie's Notes:

This recipe comes from our church cookbook. These ladies can cook! This casserole is easy, looks pretty and is rich-tasting. It can be lightened by using fat free soups and sour cream.

Comments from the Test Kitchen:

This recipe was a real hit with everyone in the Test Kitchen. It is so very filling and we made a meal out of it by pairing it with a nice green salad.

Directions

Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces, or, if you use the canned chicken, drain and break up pieces.

Mix the soups and sour cream in a large bowl.

Add the chicken and mix.

Put in a buttered casserole dish. Top with crackers and drizzle with melted butter. Sprinkle with poppy seed.

Bake at 350 degrees about 30-35 minutes or until bubbly and light brown.

I'm glad you liked it. Just a word of warning in case you don't know. If anyone in your family works where random drug testing is done you should know that poppy seeds can give a false positive reading in tests like this. We had a friend who had eaten poppy seed cake the day before and tested positive. He had no idea why but further testing showed what had happened and he was exonerated. But he won't eat poppy seeds anymore!

Love this recipe. I fix rice and serve the chicken on top. Makes it go further. It also gives it a little different texture and flavor.

I first ate this chicken casserole 24 years ago at a church potluck and it is still my favorite chicken recipe.

You wouldn't regret it! The cookbook has sold way over 1000 copies since we put it together in 2001. All just word of mouth through our church. If you are serious about wanting copies I can get them for you. How do we go about doing this? They sell for $10 each through church. Do you want me to send you the address to send the check through? Does the recipe club allow us to do this?

Kathie, I use canned white/dark meat chicken in another casserole. So I'm glad I can use that when I don't have any other chicken handy. This sounds so good.
