Chicken Casserole Recipe Easy To Make Chicken Casserole Get Curried

Welcome to today's specialist, Shantanu. Today I'm going to tantalise the taste buds with three ingredients, chicken, spinach and mushrooms. And what are you going to make out of it? We're going to do a nice cheesy chicken cassole. So let's get cooking. While my pan is heating up. Let me just take up mushroom, which is one of the main ingredients of this casserole, and justice slice it nice and chunky. Once my pan is hot, I'll get in some olive oil. A plain olive oil should do. There's no need for extra virgin because we are literally cooking in it. And then butter. Once this is in, time to throw in some garlic with that some chopped onion. And again, you don't really need to be very fine with it. Once all this is in, let's give it a quick stir. So some springs of thyme once the herbs are in. And here I've got some bits of shredded boneless chicken. Just look at the size again. They are not very finely chopped, but they are not very huge chunks as well. So a lot of chicken here. Now let's toss it up. Once my chicken is cooked, almost what I'll do is I'll put in this mushrooms in the pan. While all this is happening, let me start with the sauce that I'm going to use for my casserole, which is basically a very similar sauce to a white or a bechamel sauce. Again, I add some butter to this. Normally for a bechamel sauce, if you're making a right bechamel, it's equal quantities of butter and flour and 10 times the quantity of milk. Which means if you're using let's say 100 grams of butter, then you need to use 100 grams of the flour, all-purpose flour and one litre of milk. Since I'm making one portion of the casserole, I'm using slightly less butters, melting here. Chickens halfway through. Once the chicken looks almost cooked here, I'm just putting in my chunky bits of mushroom. Then with the spinach leaves, just shred them. So nice chunky spinach here. So once mushrooms and the chicken are tossed through, let me put in some salt. Some salt in here now black pepper. Once I can see the mushrooms and the chicken are done through, I'll put in my spinach roughly so just look at it. Nice blend of spinach, mushroom and chicken. Just enough to tantalize your taste buds. So once the butter is cooked, time to put in some all-purpose flour and whisk it out and let it cook through through the butter. So this is how you want it, nicely cooked flour through the butter. You should not get a raw taste. Once that is done, time to put in some milk. So with the milk also, if you want, you can season it with some onion, cloves and Bay leaf, which is called a clooth. But if you want it plain, good enough and now let it cook through. So let it come to a boil. The minute the sauce comes to a boil, it will start thickening. So this is almost done through. Let this come here. So once you have the sauce at your disposal, keep on whisking it thoroughly. This has got flour, so there are chances that if you leave it, it might stick to the pan. And this is a very, very basic white sauce or a bechamel sauce that I've made. And for the final tangy flavour into this, I'm just putting in a chopped blanched tomato with the skin removed. This is just to give a slight tank to my casserole. Once again, chunky into this. So once all my veggies chicken is there and my sauce is cooked, the sauce back to the chicken stirring through. So whatever is left now has to happen in the oven. The chicken is almost cooked. Once up to here, put off the pan time again for some cracked pepper. Just a hint of mustard sauce. One chili going through to this, I'm going to add some cream and justice. One egg, just some grated nutmeg to this all through this. Now mix it through, put some grated cheese into this. So we're almost ready. I've got my casserole dish. Lovely. I'll just throw in few basil strips on top. Let's chop it so nice basil on top along with some bits of tomatoes. Once again sprinkle it all over. So typical homestyle the way you would love it. No hang ups with the cheese so just 7 to 8 minutes in hot oven. Preheated oven at around 170 to 180° and that's it. You'll get a lovely baked chicken cassole. So into a preheated oven. Lovely isn't it? Looking gorgeous. I just can't resist myself to have a go at it. And so soft inside. Just look at that. This is just heavenly. Yummy, easy to make. So guys, try this yourself. And for more such lovely recipes, subscribe to Get Curry.
