Creamy Chicken Piccata Casserole
Why I Love This Recipe
This is just one of those things that came together based on what was in the kitchen and what I was in the mood for.
Ingredients You'll Need
2 chicken breasts cut into chunks
Olive oil
Salt and Pepper
1 1/2 cups cooked pasta
1 head of steamed broccoli
juice from 2 lemons
1/3 cup white wine (or so)
2 tablespoons capers
4 oz sliced mushrooms
2 cups milk (or you can use 1 cup chicken broth and 1 cup milk)
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese plus more for topping
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350'
Season the chicken with salt and pepper and cook in a skillet with oil until done. Remove from pan and set aside.
If needed add a bit more oil and saute the mushrooms. Toss in the cooked broccoli.
Pour the lemon juice in a measuring cup....pour enough wine in with the juice to measure 3/4 cup. Add to the mushrooms and broccoli. Add the milk and let simmer to heat through.
Stir in the parmesan cheese until melted.
Return the chicken to the pan. Stir in the capers.
In a large casserole dish, add the pasta and then pour the chicken mixture over the pasta. Top with some parmesan cheese.
Bake for about 30 minutes, until bubbly and golden brown.
