EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Any cooked chicken will work in this recipe. Use rotisserie chicken or refrigerated cubed cooked chicken. Or use leftover grilled chicken, which would give a slightly smoky flavor to the casserole.

This casserole is a hot version of the Italian bread salad panzanella.

This was perfect! Nice and easy after work dinner. I used the rotisserie chicken. I loved the croutons on the top. They just brought the whole thing together.. :)

This looked good in theory, but it was just too much crouton for me, and I eat them for a snack! Was kinda bland as well and the croutons became soggy.
