This Creamy Chicken Bake is family favorite! Bone-in chicken covered in canned cream soup and sprinkled with buttery crackers then baked and served over a bed of rice.

Creamy Chicken Casserole

Growing up, we had several favorite meals that we would beg my mom to make for dinner. In fact, we still beg her to make some of these yummy meals every time we go home. Everything she makes is so comforting and oh so delicious!

One of our absolute favorites is this chicken casserole where bone-in chicken is covered in canned cream soup and sprinkled with buttery crackers then baked and served over a bed of rice. Of course it’s tasty tasty, but I’ve been wanting to make my own version with a scratch-made cream sauce and boneless chicken breasts. The buttery crackers are what makes the meal so memorable so they were non-negotiable when I was recreating this recipe…mmmmm!
