Cheesy Chickenturkey And Wild Rice Casserole Recipes

CHEESY CHICKEN AND WILD RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 11x7-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. Cook rice as directed on package, using 2 tablespoons of the butter and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt.
• Meanwhile, in 12-inch skillet, melt remaining 1/4 cup butter over medium-high heat. Cook mushrooms, leek and garlic in butter 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Reduce heat to medium. Stir in flour. Gradually add milk; heat to boiling. Cook 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in 1/2 cup of the cheese.
• In large bowl, mix cooked rice, milk mixture, chicken, broth, pepper and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt until blended. Spoon into baking dish. Sprinkle with almonds and remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake uncovered 20 to 25 minutes or until thoroughly heated and cheese is melted.

CHEESY RICE CASSEROLE WITH TURKEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

• Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and cook until it bubbles and begins to smell nutty, about 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the chicken stock and half-and-half. Bring to a boil and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sour cream and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, Brussels sprouts, carrots and bell pepper and sauté until the vegetables begin to become tender, about 5 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper.

Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in a small bowl or microwave-proof glass measure, then add the panko and stir to combine. Sprinkle over the top along with the remaining cup yellow Cheddar.
