Hawaiian Chicken Casserole
Looking for a quick way to feed the masses? Try making this Hawaiian Chicken Casserole the next time you are pressed for time. I will admit that the first time I tried this casserole it was not like I expected. Adding pineapple to a noodle casserole was new to me but now we have an easy to make, easy to take dish that feeds a houseful!
Because everything is already cooked, the baking time is really just for heating up the dish. You could easily adapt this to your crock pot and cook on low for a couple of hours.
Hawaiian Chicken Casserole
Ingredients:
- 1 bag Egg Noodles (any noodle works)
- 2 Tablespoons Melted Butter
- 2 cans Cream of Chicken Soup (or try our Cream of Something Mix)
- 1 Tablespoon Salt (more or less to taste)
- 2 cans Chicken, drained (or 3 cups cooked, shredded chicken)
- 1 bag Slivered Almonds
- 1 cup Milk (Whole or 2%)
- 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
- 1 Tablespoon Black Pepper
- 1 can Pineapple Tidbits (with juice)
- 3/4 to 1 cup Dry Bread Crumbs
- Optional – several shakes of hot sauce
Directions:
- Prepare noodles per package directions
- While waiting on the noodles to cook combine soup, salt, chicken, milk, Worcestershire sauce, Pepper and pineapple tidbits (hot sauce) in a large bowl
- Once noodles are cooked, drain and place in large bowl with sauce mixture
- Gently stir to combine
- Pour into large casserole dish (9×13 or 2 smaller ones)
- Top with bread crumbs and almonds
- Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes or until hot and bubbly
This casserole can be mixed up to create an entirely different dish by adding any vegetable your family enjoys. My crew love the little peas and carrots added to most casseroles. They add color to the casserole which this one could use. Likewise, we have also tried this with ground beef and ground turkey with good results.
These sounds amazing and I think my son would love this!
This recipe sounds delicious and so easy! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe.
This sounds delicious. I am going to make it this afternoon. If it turns out as good as I am hoping, it will also be my contribution to this years Christmas dinner. Nice to change things up occasionally.
Thanks so much for this recipe! It sure sounds good! I have to admit that I’ve never had chicken and noodles with pineapple before, but it really works for this recipe! I love how easy it is to make as well! I’m going to have to try this one night for dinner (and have to make something else for hubby since he doesn’t eat chicken!) Thanks so much for sharing this delicious recipe with all of us! I really do appreciate it! Thanks again, Michele 🙂
This recipe sounds and looks interesting. I think my family would find it quite tasty.
