hong kong chicken casserole

Updated on Nov 21, 2012

Here's a recipe from an old cookbook that I'm definitely tweaking! It calls for 2 cups of cubed zucchini, but I'm not a fan, so I'm going to substitute a cup each of celery and water chestnuts. Sounds much better to me! This dish goes from freezer to oven. Picture from BH&G Oven Meals
