Chicken Crispy Bake

Perfect Pixie's Note:

Can be eating this in 30 minutes. Perfect served with peas and corn or a salad. You could even add the peas and corn to the dish. We used a store brought allready rotisserie chicken

I substituted sour cream for the cream and added cooked rice- about 2 cups. Although it was very good, I think I will cut down on the onion next time. It was very strong. I also think I will try walnuts or pecans in place of the almonds. Overall, this is really good and I will definitely make it again. Thanks for a great idea!

I also left out the cream and next time would either add cooked rice, as someone else mentioned, or use less mayonnaise, as it was a bit too rich. Very tasty and extremely quick and easy!!

My husband loved this! I used a roasted chicken from the store and it made prep super quick. He totally wants me to make this again, his only request is more cheese and chips on top (one of his favorite parts). Thanks for the awesome recipe.
