With my work schedule, I like to have main dishes that I can throw together quickly. Since this is my daughter's favorite meal I make, I keep it on the menu frequently. The best part is I can cook the chicken the night before, and then assemble it the next day. This makes it a really fast meal.

When we lived in Texas, once a month the school where I taught had bring a dish along with copies of the recipe for everyone. As I was putting this post together, I realized just how much I miss this fun idea. Not only did we always get to try all kinds of new dishes and recipes, but we would have a collection of recipes to bring home at the end of the day, too! I think I might need to bring this topic up where I teach now.
I still have the original recipe, but I have no idea where she actually got the recipe from. I do make a few adjustments when I make it. I always double the recipe to have another meal for the week.
The other adjustment I make is to add more crackers than the original recipe calls for. Have you noticed just how much a sleeve of Ritz crackers has been reduced??

Here's is what you will need:
shredded chicken- I use chicken breast
1 8oz. carton sour cream
1 can Cream of Chicken Soup
1 pkg. crushed Ritz crackers
1 stick melted butter
2 Tbs. poppy seeds
1st Layer - Spread the shredded chicken in the bottom of a 9 x 12 pan.
2nd Layer - Mix the sour cream and Cream of Chicken together until smooth, and spread over the chicken.
3rd Layer - Melt the stick of butter, and mix with the crackers very well. Stir in 2 tbsp. poppy seeds and layer on top.
Bake at 350 degrees until hot.
*** I double everything in the recipe.***

I think the best tip I have ever seen on Pinterest was to use my Kitchenaid mixer to shred the chicken! It is so quick and easy, and shreds the chicken perfectly. I always cut the chicken breasts into 3 pieces before I toss them in the mixer. In seconds, the chicken is ready to go! The amount of time this saves is great.
I did manage to get one quick photo before my family dug in. It never lasts very long around my house.
That buttery, crunchy topping is definitely what makes this casserole so delicious! It definitely is not on the list for a low-fat meal, but sometimes you just have to splurge!
So what is your favorite quick and easy go-to meal? I am always looking for new dishes to try. Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a fantastic week!

I love this recipe! My roommate in college used to make it. I've thought about making it on occasion, but my husband won't eat sour cream, or anything that has it in it.
I am a big fan of chicken and this certainly looks very delicious Kathy. Thanks a lot for sharing on Creative Monday.
Mmmm...this looks like an "I gotta try" chicken is on our menu all week long!
This looks awesome and I bet tastes SO good!! Thanks for sharing at Simple Supper Tuesday.
Chicken, sour cream, ritz crackers...sounds like a winning combo to me! I love recipes that can be made ahead, and yes, I've noticed everything is getting smaller (except my booty). ;)
I was so excited to see this recipe - I used to make a casserole very similar and have not been able to find my recipe. Already pinned! Stopping by from Simple Supper Tuesday.
I just drooled all over the keyboard. LOL
Thanks again for joining the Link Up this week!
Oh man... this recipe brings back memories ~ good ones. Many, many years ago a friend used to make this and gave me the recipe but I misplaced it and haven't made it for a number of years. I'm putting it on our menu soon. Thanks for your recipe. Do you think you could share this recipe and any other great ones you have over at our link party?

Kathy, I also love this recipe and I haven't made it in ages. Our church Wednesday night supper is where I first had it. It's always a hit and I searched and searched for it on the Internet several years ago. It's perfect anytime, but especially in fall!
Kathy, this chicken casserole looks so good. I have pinned it. Thanks for passing the tip along about shredding the chicken with the mixer!
Classic recipe! I haven't made it for years! Always loved, thanks so much for sharing your recipe and reminding me that the good old ones need remembering! Good ole Ritz crackers!!

I LOVE poppyseed chicken! My mother-in-law makes it and now I do too. It's so delicious! The only thing I do differently than your recipe is that I use a homemade version of cream of chicken soup. Otherwise they're the same! Now I know what I want for dinner tomorrow ;)
This is one of my favorite dishes and a casserole my husband actually likes too! Thanks for sharing it! Definitely delicious!
