I really loved the crispy cheese on top with bacon. I wasn't as big of a fan of the cheddar soup component. It needed more flavor and substance. This seems like good hearty country eats but not a recipe to return to that often.
I didn't like the Cheddar cheese soup. With all of the fresh ingredients that canned soup tasted canned and stale definitely NOT the trick. The chicken and cheese and bacon were WONDERFUL together and this would have been MOST excellent with some Hollandaise sauce instead of the cheddar soup. Next time green beans on the side too!
Why aren't more people trying this recipe? They sure are missing out. Try it.
Excellent. And I thought I didn't like casseroles. This fantastic recipe proved me wrong. O:)
This was actually quite good for an everyday meal. I did not include the cayenne (it doesn't say where to use it and I'm not a fan anyway. I used only three strips of bacon to reduce the fat which still worked well flavor-wise. I also baked the chicken instead of sauteing it as baking or poaching is the only way I can keep chicken from being too dry. The only other recommendations I would make is to heat the cheese soup separately as the broil time is not sufficient to heat it and to buy Trader Joe's frozen French green beans if you can. It makes it so much easier to make this as a "pantry" dish if you have frozen green beans frozen chicken and a couple cans of cheese soup on hand for a last minute-meal!
To reduce fat use a low-fat cheese sauce in place of the cheddar cheese (w/ butter flour milk and cheese). Double it if you would like it really moist. Use low-fat cheddar cheese or only half of the cheese and half of the bacon. Wonderful.
This is yummy! Wasn't sure that I got the right soup though. The closest thing my supermarket had was Campbell's Cheddar Cheese (no mention of "cream of" or "soup" on the label. Was still good though.
Ce poulet est notre favorites. Nous étions un hesitant de morceau au début mais il est le meilleur! Apprécier! (This chicken is our favorites. We were a bit hesitant at first but it is the best! Enjoy!)
did NOT turn out well breadcrumbs apeared to be in the wrong place. Directions not clear if you did not refigerate. Do not recomend this as it is written I may try it again a month from now with many changes.
