Tribute to Dolly Parton’s Chicken Casserole

Dolly Parton had many gifts, singer, song writer, actor, icon, advocate for reading: the list is endless. She was also known for her down home cooking. This is my take on her famous 5 ingredient chicken casserole. There are a few recipes that I don’t put my spin on. I just added three items chives, mixed vegetables and hot sauce to break up all the heaviness. Dolly sorry for the changes but I hope you like it.

16 ounces shredded chicken
1 can cream of chicken soup
8 ounces sour cream
16 ounces cheddar cheese grated
12 ritz crackers
Dans adds
16 ounces mixed vegetables
2 teaspoons hot sauce
2 tablespoons chives

In a casserole dish add chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, 8 ounces of cheese, mixed vegetables, hot sauce and chives and mix.

Crush crackers and add to 8 ounces of cheese.

Top casserole with cheese mixture.

Bake for 40 minutes until topping is brown.

Serve.

    I just dumped a bunch of cans of Cream of Chicken Soup that was given to us and nobody would eat it. Now I might have to go out and buy a can.

    Sounds good except I’d leave out the hot sauce and the chives might not sit well with chicken flavor. I love them or onions in most things though!
