Ingredients
4 cups cooked chicken, chopped
2 cups celery, thinly sliced
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cups crushed potato chips
1 cup almonds, chopped
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
Method
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, combine the chopped cooked chicken, sliced celery, chopped onion, cream of chicken soup, mayonnaise, lemon juice, chopped almonds, and half of the grated cheddar. Stir until all ingredients are evenly mixed. Transfer the mixture to a lightly greased baking dish and spread it into an even layer. Sprinkle the crushed potato chips over the top, then finish by evenly distributing the remaining grated cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the casserole is heated through. Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving to allow it to set slightly. Serve warm as a main dish or as a hearty side.
