Kitchen Tips
Tip 1
How to Halve or Double the Recipe
To prepare as a 2-serving recipe, cut all ingredients in half and prepare the casserole in a prepared 8x4-inch loaf pan. Or to double the recipe, prepare recipe as directed doubling all ingredients and using 2 prepared 9-inch square baking dishes. If desired, bake one casserole now and freeze the other until ready to serve another time.
Tip 2
How to Bake Immediately After Assembling
Heat oven to 400ºF. Assemble casserole in 9-inch square baking dish sprayed with cooking spray; cover. (No need to line the empty dish with foil first.) Bake 30 min. or until chicken is done (165ºF), uncovering after 15 min.
