Poppy Seed Chicken Bake


Another easy and satisfying chicken dish. A great way to use up leftover chicken. Serve over rice or noodles, add a salad and your meal is ready.
If you bake it in a foil pan you can bring it to someone for dinner and they don't have to bother bringing back the pan. I brought dinner to our son's house and they loved it.
  • 4 cups of chicken, cooked and chopped
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 can (284 ml / 10 oz) condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 3 teaspoons honey Dijon mustard
  • 3/4 cup Gouda cheese, grated
  • 1 1/2 cups of buttery round crackers, crushed
  • 2 teaspoons poppy seeds

  1. I've had the same recipe for 20+ years, but, mine doesn't call for Gouda cheese or Dijon mustard.

    1. The recipe for the slaw is on this blog, type Patty's Oriental Salad in recipe search. I used mixed cabbage slaw instead of the Savoy cabbage and I reduced the butter to 1/3 cup.
      We're happy you are enjoying the blog!

  5. Your recipes always look so attractive. This one is very nutritious and I will certainly be trying it. Just a bit confused as to what you call crushed crackers? I'm English. Are you talking about Graham crackers or Jacobs crackers (the sort you would serve with cheese)? Pls reply to stella.jones4@ntlworld.com if you have time.

    1. These would be like the kind of crackers you serve with cheese. They are not sweet but buttery and a bit salty. I used Ritz crackers, there are other brands you could use.
