Not sure where this recipe came from or who to credit for it’s inception, but I got it from the couple who brought this delicious dish to a dinner party we attended earlier this year. I loved it so much, I begged for the recipe. I’m shameless in that respect. Hee. It’s a very yummy dish, and fairly straightforward to make, so give it a whirl.<\/p>\n

\"Cajun<\/p>\n

Cajun Chicken Casserole<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 lb of cooked and slicked chicken breast
\n3 tablespoons of olive oil (any kind you like)<\/p>\n

Cook chicken in a skillet while your oven pre-heats to 375 degrees.<\/p>\n

1 red bell pepper, coarsely cut up
\n1 green bell pepper, coarsely cut up
\n1 medium onion, coarsely cut up (your choice of onion type)<\/p>\n

Remove chicken from the skillet and place in a rectangle dish; set aside. Sautee the veggies in the skillet till soft and heated through (about five minutes).<\/p>\n

1 14 oz can of Cream of Chicken soup
\nHalf a large can of diced or crushed tomatoes (your choice which you use)
\nCajun seasons of your choice (I use a few dashes of cumin and chili pepper, and match it with a pinch of red pepper flakes)
\nSalt and pepper to taste<\/p>\n

Mix soup, tomatoes and seasonings in a bowl to blend well; set aside. Place sauteed veggies over chicken in the glass dish and top with the soup and tomato mixture. Mix well.<\/p>\n

\"Cajun<\/p>\n

1 C all purpose or whole wheat flour (I use a mixture of both)
\n1\/4 C sugar
\n1\/4 C salt
\n2 1\/2 teaspoons baking powder
\n1 egg, beaten
\n1\/3 C vegetable oil
\n3\/4 C milk or water<\/p>\n

Mix pancake batter up in mixing bowl with lid, cover and let it rest in the fridge for five or more minutes.<\/p>\n

Pour pancake batter over the top of the glass dish mixture, spooning it up to about 1\/2″ away from all edges. The topping will puff and rise as it bakes. Cook for 25 minutes.<\/p>\n

\"Cajun<\/p>\n

If you notice about half way that the pancake topping is already golden brown, pull the dish from the oven and use a sheet of tin foil loosely draped over the dish (resist the urge to fold the tin foil down at the sides of the dish) to create a tent to shield it from burning while it cooks in the hot oven for the remainder of the time.<\/p>\n

Serve with sour cream and guacamole or a light green salad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
