Ingredients

  • 4½ cups chopped cooked chicken
  • 4 oz cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 (10.5-oz) can Unsalted Cream of Chicken Soup
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp dried onion powder
  • 1 sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed
  • 5 Tbsp butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Lightly spray a 9×9-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.

  4. Bake uncovered 30 to 40 minutes.

Notes

  • Use a rotisserie chicken for quick prep of the cooked chicken.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is very soft so it blends smoothly into the mixture. If needed, microwave it for 15 to 20 seconds.
  • The casserole can be assembled through step 3 and refrigerated or frozen until ready to bake.
  • If frozen, thaw completely before baking as directed above.
  • Using Unsalted Cream of Chicken Soup helps control the salt level in the finished dish.
