I tweaked this recipe quite a bit I halved it used canned chicken one can of cream of chicken instead of mushroom thinned it with about 1 1/2 cups of milk used seasoning salt and some garlic instead of poultry seasoning and served on toasted bread. If you made it this far it was really good!:) My kids asked for seconds.
My family loves this recipe. I use skinless, boneless chicken breast and cream of chicken and cream of celery instead of mushroom. It is a real winner at my house. Im making it for my sons graduation next week.
This was great! I didn't have the exact ingredients on hand so I used a 3 pound can of cooked chicken two cans of cream of chicken soup a capfull of Mrs. Dash seasoning and the Ritz crackers. It was so fast and easy and everybody loved it! Thanks for the recipe!
This IS an Ohio thing. I grew up on these sandwiches in the Newark area. Not all of Ohio has them. I didn't realize until after moveing around the country it is ONLY a central Ohio thing so I make these for my family. I do add garlic and onion powder with salt and pepper. Not ment to have a lot of spice flavor, just a good chicken flavor. Some places made theirs creamy (more soup, less crackers) others with less soup and crackers, less creamy.
Delicious! For all the "anti-mushy" folks: shredded chicken sandwiches are *supposed* to be mushy.
My family was not impressed with this recipe at all. It was too mushy. I would add more chicken and less crackers. Taste was also kind of bland.
For those who think it is too bland try adding a 10 oz bag of crushed sour cream and onion chips...if its too mushy try adding more cracker or bread crumbs....a little poutry seasoning will help kick it up too!
I made these and they were OK but kind of bland. I tweaked it next time I made it. So 3 stars for original but 5 stars for tweaking. I slow cooked 3 skinless chicken breasts all day in crock pot with chicken broth,garlic powder,& onion powder. Drained about 2 cups broth in cup set aside. Shredded chicken added one can cream of chicken and one cream of mushroom. Added cup of milk. Put some stuffing mix in baggy and rolled rolling pin over it to smash. Added them....mixed all together then added chicken broth to make it moist!!!! YUMMY!!!!!
This is a great REGIONAL recipe from the Ohio area. I came on this sight in search of the traditional Ohio Shredded Chicken sandwich. And happily I found one. So thank you for the great recipe. This is a regional food that is very popular in Ohio and some surrounding areas. It's meant to be a yummy sloppy shredded chicken and gravy sandwich.
