This yummy casserole recipe came to me from my daughter, Jennifer.  Chicken Terrific is a favorite casserole on her dinner table and has also become a favorite of mine.

This dish makes a lot, and with four growing boys, she wants a dish that lasts a couple of days.

This is not your typical casserole.

The ingredients might surprise you, including wild rice, water chestnuts, French-style green beans, and a buttery herb stuffing that elevates it to the next level.

In fact, it is better the next day when all the ingredients come together to make a yummy leftover meal.

What is so great about preparing this delightful casserole is that it can be made a day in advance. Just add the topping before putting it in the oven.

The aroma is incredible and enticing enough to dig in as soon as it finishes baking.  I served it with a delicious salad and hot bread.  It makes a terrific potluck dish for any gathering.

Plan to take it to your next potluck supper, and you will get rave reviews!
