Regena sent me an e-mail entitled Winner, Winner Chicken Dinner to let me know I won. Of course I was super excited to win and every time I hear Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner it makes me think of a recipe I got a few years ago during a Wilson Reading workshop. Another workshop participant gave it to me. In honor of this occasion I thought I'd share the recipe.
Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner
Ingredients:
! small roasted chicken or 3 cooked chicken breasts (shredded)
1 box stuffing mix
2 jars of chicken gravy
1 pie crust(pre-made or homemade)
Frozen veggie mix
Fresh veggies(mushrooms, celery, onion- or whatever you like)
1/4/to 1/2 cup merlot or red wine
3 tablespoons of butter
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350.
Prepare stuffing and set aside.
Saute the fresh veggies in butter. Add fresh rosemary or thyme if desired.
Stir together all ingredients in a casserole dish (I use a 2.5 quart dish)
Top with a pie crust. Cover with with foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove foil and bake until golden and bubbly(approx. 35 minutes.)
Serve and enjoy!
And that's Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner!
