Chicken & Squash Casserole image

Adapted from a recipe in one of my books. This is a great autumn/winter casserole - very tasty and ever so healthy! I've given the directions for cooking in the oven but this can easily be done in a crock pot as well - just follow steps 2 and 3 and fling it all in the crock pot, cooking on low for 8 hours.

Time 1h

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 chicken breasts
1 carrot
1 medium onion
1/2 butternut squash (peeled)
1 tablespoon sage
chicken stock cube
water
1/2 cup cashew nuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 190c.
  • Chop everything up - the chicken and onion, cube the squash and slice the carrotts. If you're using the cashews chop these up as well.
  • Using some 1 cal spray (or olive oil if you prefer), brown the chicken and soften the onion, squash and carrot for approximately 5 minutes.
  • Transfer into a casserole dish, add the sage and stock cube. Fill with water until everything is nearly covered.
  • Cook in the oven for 45mins to an hour or until everything is cooked and tender.
  • Stir through half the nuts (if using).
  • Plate up and garnish with remaining nuts.

This casserole is a great way to use up leftover chicken and squash. It's also a great meal to take to a potluck or party.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but the casserole was a complete disaster. It was burnt on the bottom and the chicken was raw in the middle.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the casserole didn't turn out well. The chicken was tough and the squash was undercooked.

The casserole was a bit dry. I think I would add more milk or cream to the sauce next time.

This casserole was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more salt and pepper next time.

I made a few changes to the recipe, but the casserole still turned out great. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts instead of chicken thighs, and I added a cup of chopped carrots to the squash mixture.

This casserole was a hit with my family! The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the squash was tender and sweet. The sauce was creamy and cheesy, and the crunchy topping added a nice texture.
