Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
½ cup butter, melted
1 sleeve buttery round crackers (such as Ritz®), crushed
1 teaspoon poppy seeds, or more if desired
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream

2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Place the chicken breasts into a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer until the chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes. Drain the water, then shred the chicken.

  • Blend the sour cream and cream of chicken soup in a bowl; pour half of the soup mixture into a 9x9-inch baking dish. Add the shredded chicken, then pour the remaining half of the soup mixture on top. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese, then top with the cracker mixture.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h

Yield 1 9x13, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 -3 cups cooked chicken (I use the fully cooked rotisserie chicken from the store)
16 ounces sour cream
10 ounces cream of chicken soup
35 Ritz crackers (one whole package)
16 ounces wide egg noodles
1/2 cup butter
poppy seed

Steps:

  • Cook a little over half the bag of egg noodles until done.
  • In a bowl,combine the chicken, cream of chicken soup, and sour cream. Mix well.
  • In a 9x13 take a small chunk of cold butter and rub the bottom of the pan. This insures that the noodles will not stick or become crispy. (I find that this is the only way that works for me. Using spray Pam has always made my noodles on the side crispy.)
  • Spread noodles over greased pan.
  • Spread the chicken mixture on top making sure to cover all the noodles well.
  • Melt the stick of butter and crumble the whole package of Ritz crackers in it and mix until crackers are saturated. Spread on top of chicken mixture.
  • Sprinkle Poppy Seeds on top.
  • Cook uncovered at 350 for 30 minute or until hot.
