  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken to cut down on prep time. If you make the casserole ahead, assemble it without baking, cover tightly, and refrigerate up to one day before cooking. Leftovers store well in the fridge for three days and can be reheated in the microwave with a splash of milk to keep the sauce creamy.
