Creamy French Onion Chicken Casserole Recipe Is What to Make This Week

Super creamy and full of tender chicken, french-cut green beans, crunchy almonds and french fried onions, this chicken casserole recipe is a satisfying dinner. It has minimal prep (chopping the onion!) and is on the table in no time.

To make this casserole recipe you will need the following simple ingredients: chopped cooked chicken, frozen french-cut green beans, an onion, cheddar cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, a can of cream of chicken soup, slivered almonds and a can of french fried onions. My husband really enjoyed it, but had a suggestion for next time – add egg noodles. And I had to agree. So the next time I make this easy french onion chicken casserole recipe, I'm going to add about 2 cups of cooked egg noodles.

Serve this french onion chicken casserole for dinner with a fresh vegetable and salad. It would be delicious served over rice or pasta.

Recipe Notes:

To make it a pasta casserole, stir in 2 cups of cooked pasta or egg noodles.

You can use leftover chicken or a rotisserie chicken for this recipe.

For a healthier casserole, use light mayonnaise, light sour cream, low-sodium cream of chicken soup and reduced-fat cheese.

Try different cheese in this recipe like gruyere, Swiss, Monterey Jack or even pepper-jack for a little spice.

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days.

Here's how to make it:

Combine all the ingredients except french fried onions in a bowl. Season well with black pepper. Mix until combined.
Spoon the mixture into a 13x9-inch baking pan or casserole dish. Bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven for about 30 minutes.
Sprinkle with the french fried onions and bake another 5 minutes.
