What makes a great dinner recipe? Well, according to my husband, most importantly: it needs to have some sort of protein. But to him, that does not include eggs, or beans. It needs to be more than that. In his book of dinners, it includes chicken, turkey, pork chops, beef chunks, even ground beef (although he finds ground beef disappears in his food and then does not like it so much. He likes to taste those chunks of beef when he is eating.
Well, the list after that is funny. He loves food that has some sort of carb on the bottom of a casserole dish (say rice or mashed potatoes), then has the meat, then has loads of cheese and a crispy topping of some sort. Well, I told him that is a pretty tough bill to fit, but I would do my best to find something.
I searched for quite a while and still came up empty handed. I mean, those were some specific requests! Well, after a long search, we ended up finding this amazing recipe. It is everything on his list! French Onion Chicken Casserole. I mean, just the name of this makes it sound amazing!

Quick Tip: Use any of your favorite styles of French fried onions for this.
I see some changes I’d have to make, but it would still be the same half dozen ingredients. Not being married any longer (happily divorced for 35 years!!), I’d have to freeze this in multiple containers, but how nice it would be to have it ready for those nights when I just don’t want to cook.
Same recipe as Unforgettable Chicken Casserole. Have made it for years
I would change it a little bit but it sounds delicious.
going to try this
I am not that crazy about the Frenches onions so I think I will add chopped onion instead..
I would also like to say the I love when you tell us that a recipe is freezable. As my household is very small they are always left overs so I try make recipes that I can freeze. Thank you. Can wait to give it a try.
I have been giving this recipe some more thought. I wonder if instead of the canned fried onions use onion rings instead. the onions get cooked but you would still have some crunch.
I always find these recipes so intriguing – I love onions and I thought this was going to be a baked onion dish of some sort. Unfortunately – although I bet this is delicious – it might as well be called “Delicious Death in a Casserole Dish”!
PUT THAT IN THE FREEZER AND JUST LEAVE IT THERE. WHEN IT GETS TO THE POINT YOU CAN’T FIGURE OUT WHAT IT IS……THROW IT AWAY.
Every time you send a recipe, and I click on, it says, “recipe not found”. Why can’t I get it?
Hi I would like to try this recipe you have sour cream mentioned in the directions but not in the ingredient list
