Description

A baked dish with a savory sour cream batter base topped with cooked chicken, mixed vegetables, mushroom soup, and cheddar cheese.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (113 g) butter, softened
  • 1 cup (240 g) sour cream
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon rubbed sage
  • 1 package (16 ounces / 450 g) frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
  • 2 cups (280 g) cubed cooked chicken
  • 1 can (10.5 ounces / 298 g) condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup (75 g) chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup (55 g) shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 3-quart baking dish.
  2. Place the softened butter and sour cream in a medium bowl. Beat them together until smooth.
  3. Add the egg to the butter mixture and beat until well incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and rubbed sage.
  5. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Stir lightly until a thick batter forms.
  6. Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish. Spread it into an even layer using a spatula.
  7. In a large bowl, mix the thawed vegetables, cooked chicken, condensed soup, and chopped onion.
  8. Spoon the chicken mixture evenly over the batter layer in the baking dish. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the top.
  9. Bake uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes. The casserole is done when it is heated through, bubbling, and reaches a safe internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) for the egg in the base.

Notes

  • Food safety: Because the base contains a raw egg, ensure the casserole reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) before serving.
  • If the cheese starts to brown too quickly before the center is done, cover the baking dish loosely with aluminum foil.
  • Dry the thawed vegetables well with a paper towel before mixing them with the chicken and soup to avoid a soggy casserole.
