Golden Onion Chicken

© Allison Huller McAlister

This week I tried a casserole dish that sounded like classic comfort food just from reading the list of ingredients--chicken, potatoes, cream of chicken soup, sour cream and french-fried onions. A satisfying comfort food that is also a cinch to prepare. This meal can be thrown together rather quickly, but it takes a total of 1 hour and 25 minutes to bake.

We all loved the finished product. It was creamy and delicious, and the french-fried onions just completed the whole taste experience. Since I use reduced-fat and fat-free products in all my cooking, my husband wonders just how delectable this meal would be prepared with the full-fat ingredients. And that got him thinking--would several of our 4-star meals become 5-stars if they were prepared with the original, full-fat versions of their ingredients? Things that make you go, “Hmmm.”

To compliment the tender chicken and the creamy potatoes, I served a side dish of baby corn blend frozen vegetables.

I hope you and your family enjoy this delightful four-star main dish.

Have a good week and good eating!
