For most casseroles, including this one, you need to start with cooked chicken. Here's a post I wrote about cooking meat to freezer for later and here's one I did on cooking a whole chicken in the crockpot. That's not a dumb question at all!

This is probably a dumb question but I’m a bit new at cooking. Do you bake the chicken BEFORE you put it in the casserole and bake it for an hour together? Or is it raw chicken that you put on top and bake for the hour?

If you boil your chicken to cook it, the liquid left over is chicken broth. I recommend boiling chicken instead of baking it.

I added 2-3 bay leaves and it was perfection

Kira, I’ve never tried freezing a casserole with rice in it. I’m not sure which would work better – freezing before or after. If you try it, let me know how it works.

Has anyone tried freezing this casserole? If so would you bake it first?

I made this and it had a very good flavor but mine was extremely runny. Almost like a soup. Not sure what I did wrong but the next time I will cut the chicken broth back to just one can. Otherwise it had a great flavor and can’t wait to try it again.

Spinach and bacon sound like fantastic additions. Yum!

I am making this right now! I added a package of chopped spinach (thawed & squeezed dry) and 4 slices of chopped up cooked bacon. It smells delish! I stay at home with my 2 boys (3 &16 months) while my husband is on active duty so it was nice to find an easy chicken recipe that will provide several meals. Thanks!
