Chicken Rice Green Bean Casserole

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Get your meat, grains and greens all in one with this colorful Chicken Rice Casserole dish.

Chicken Rice Green Bean Casserole - Your meat, grains and greens all in one colorful dish!We are in Michigan this week visiting my family.   We’re staying with my parents.  My sister, her husband and their two kids and two dogs are living with my parents right now while transitioning from a Colorado move.  Add my little college-aged sister to the math, and we have a FULL house.

I’m not gonna lie, one of the reasons I decided to schedule this recipe for today is so I would have it available so I can make it for everyone for dinner while here.  With such a chaotic and crazy house, we need EASY dishes that feed a lot of people.  But, obviously, we’ll be eating our way around Grand Rapids, too!

Chicken Rice Green Bean Casserole - Your meat, grains and greens all in one colorful dish!If you do not already prepare cooked shredded chicken at least once per month to keep in the freezer, start now!  It is one of the best meal prepping steps I do every single month.  Here is a recipe and tutorial on my favorite shredded chicken that you can freeze and use in any dish calling for cooked chicken.

As long as you have your shredded chicken ready and your rice cooked (go for the quick cook stuff, it’s perfect!), this dish comes together in a jiffy!  The perfect weeknight meal!

Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

  1. Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until just soft, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and let cool. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  2. Mix the rest of the ingredients into the bowl with the onions, until combined. Spread into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Bake for 25 minutes.

    This was really good and very quick! I have to comment to say that it will still turn out (just a little less creamy) if you make it and see the cream of ___ soup sitting on the counter when it’s already been in the oven for 23 mins. I just didn’t add it at all at that point and it had enough binder to stick together fairly well. I can’t wait to make it again as written!

    This looks amazing, but I do not like mayonnaise. Is there a way to make this without by perhaps using more soup or sour cream? Thanks.

      Hi Carrie,

      As noted in the recipe, you can use Greek Yogurt instead of the mayo. But, if you do not like that either, you can definitely use sour cream. It will just be a little different taste, but not much different. 🙂
