Ingredients
8 servings
- •2 tablespoons olive oil
- •3 cups cubed skinless, boneless chicken
- •4 cups torn bread pieces
- •1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- •¼ cup butter, melted
- •2 cups frozen peas
- •¼ cup butter
- •½ cup all-purpose flour
- •3 cups milk
- •2 teaspoons salt
- •½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and set aside.
- Toss the bread pieces, Cheddar cheese, and 1/4 cup melted butter together in a bowl; spread about half of the mixture into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Layer the peas and chicken atop the bread layer.
- Melt 1/4 cup butter in a saucepan over medium heat; stir the flour, milk, salt, and pepper into the melted butter. Cook and stir the sauce until smooth and thick, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour over the casserole. Top with the remaining bread mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the top begins to brown, 30 to 40 minutes.
