4 tbsp. butter
1 8 oz. tub of sour cream
1 8 oz. can of Cream of Chicken Soup
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

OK, not meaning to be rude just wanting to give my honest review of this recipe. was very excited by all the wonderful reviews I decided to prepare it just as written. My husband nor I cared much for it. We felt it tasted very bland. My grandson said it reminded him of tuna helper but he would rather have the tuna helper. If I were to try it again, I do not know what I could add to make it taste better. I am sorry, Heather H. I do not mean to offend; I am just giving my opinion.

My husband and I really LOVED this recipe! I didn't have Ritz crackers, so I used 0.75 of a sleeve of Keebler Club crackers. I also used a regular 10.5 oz. can of cream of chicken soup. Some people have commented the soup mixture is bland. I disagree, because you get a bite of crispy crackers with every bite. I made this in a 8x8-inch Pyrex dish. We ate the whole thing! That doesn't usually happen. I will definitely make this again!

I make a casserole very similar to this one I use chicken, French onion dip, cream of chicken soup, peas, water chestnuts, and every now and then potato chips and cover the top with cheese and put it in the oven for a while your recipe sounds delicious also and I'm thinking about making it tonight for dinner

Yummy. A couple additions: I stirred a drained can of corn into the sour cream/soup mix, added a handful of sliced green onion on top of the grated cheddar, and crushed up whole wheat saltines (instead of Ritz), stirred 2 tbsp melted butter into the saltines and put them on top. Will definitely make again!

This was really good! I added steamed carrots and brocoli, but next time I might try changing up the soup with cream of mushroom (and add in some fresh mushrooms!!) or cream of brocoli, as I agree the sour cream/soup is a little bland. Maybe a dash of currie?

I keep thinking some cream cheese would go very well too, but I'll have to experiment with that first!!

I absolutely love this recipe. It has become a huge success with friends, and it's a family favorite. I have spruced it up quite a bit thought since I first made it. I now add half of a finely diced onion to the sour cream/soup mixture along with a dash or two of honey (to take just a bit away from the sour cream's tang.) I also add a few spices here and there, don't ask me what, I couldn't tell you it changes to taste every time. lol All I know is that this recipe is truly a hit. It works great if some shredded cheese is mixed in the dish as well, and now just on the top. Also good with broccoli and/or peas added in. Enjoy!

This turned out really good!! :) it was perfect for the two of us to have a decent amount and then some left overs. I added spaghetti noodles but you almost have to double the cream of chicken soup and the sour cream mixture if you add noodles (i made the mistake of using thick noodles the first time I made this, you should use thinner noodles) and I also added half a can of peas. It turned out amazing! :) thanks for the recipe!
