Donetta Brunner of Savanna, Illinois traces this hearty main dish back to a 4-H cooking project. 'I liked the recipe immediately, and it has traveled through the years with me to become a favorite with my children and husband, too. The only change I've made to the original is to add extra seasonings.'
My husband is a real meat-and-potatoes guy and could eat the same thing every day, but not me! So I've come up with different ways, including this recipe, to use those main ingredients.
Bring the flavors of the Mediterranean to your kitchen with chicken cooked slowly on a bed of pepperoncini, olives and garlic with a creamy, lemon sauce. Serve over couscous or white or brown rice.
Easy to prepare and rich in flavor, the casserole pairs fabulously with roasted chicken, ham, or pork chops. This simple dish has become a staff favorite, and we believe it will be right at home in your home, too.
'Our family lives and works on a ranch,' remarks Ronna Lewis from Plains, Kansas. 'I like to fix this nicely seasoned casserole ahead of time and freeze it for later use. It's good with a tossed salad or nacho chips and dip.'
