Variations and Substitutions

  • Mamaw’s Chicken and Rice Casserole is fantastic as it is, but it lends itself to substitutions and variations. Here are a few ideas to spark your creativity:
  • Rotisserie ChickenTo make things even easier on yourself, you can forgo cooking and cubing chicken breasts in favor of adding shredded rotisserie chicken.
  • BroccoliMany Allrecipes reviewers suggest adding fresh or frozen broccoli florets to the mix for a pop of color and flavor.
  • CheeseShredded Cheddar cheese is a cheap, easy way to amp up the creaminess factor. If you’re in the mood to turn up the heat, consider using Pepper Jack.
