- Pour the sauce over the chicken and top with the parmesan cheese. Bake at 350ยบ 25-30 minutes.
- Do not freeze.
Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and texture to your casserole. Some good choices include broccoli, carrots, zucchini, and mushrooms.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken that is cooked for too long will be dry and tough. Cook it until it is just cooked through, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce is what will really bring your casserole together. You can use a variety of sauces, such as a tomato sauce, a cream sauce, or a pesto sauce.
- Top the casserole with cheese. Cheese is a classic topping for casseroles, and it adds a delicious flavor and texture. You can use any type of cheese that you like, such as mozzarella, cheddar, or Parmesan.
- Bake the casserole until it is golden brown and bubbly. This will ensure that the casserole is cooked through and that the cheese is melted and gooey.
