Why Chicken Casseroles Are the Ultimate Comfort Food

Casseroles are the original one-pan dinner. You layer in chicken, vegetables, a creamy sauce, and whatever cheese you have, then let the oven do the work.

The best casseroles reheat beautifully, which makes them ideal for meal prep and potlucks. A 9x13 dish on Sunday can mean lunches through Wednesday.

On Pepper, home cooks return to these satisfying chicken casserole recipes again and again, proving their worth for easy weeknight meals or comforting Sunday suppers.

Quick Tips

1
Use Rotisserie for Easy Wins
Skip raw chicken and use pulled rotisserie meat instead. It's already seasoned, saves 30 minutes, and adds depth to cream-based casseroles right out of the gate.
2
Cover First, Then Brown
Bake casseroles covered for most of the cook time to keep moisture in, then uncover for the last 15 minutes. That's when the top gets golden and the cheese crisps up.
3
Freeze Before Baking
Casseroles freeze best before they go into the oven. Assemble, wrap tightly in foil, and freeze for up to three months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before baking as directed.
4
Don't Skip the Rest Time
Let casseroles sit for 10 minutes after coming out of the oven. The sauce thickens and the layers hold together when you cut into it instead of collapsing into a mess.
