this look so good!Maybe some of your commenters and come visit me! haha. I would love to try this! Thanks for sharing
love it made like a cobbler come see whatI shared today http://shopannies.blogspot.com
This is my first visit in your blog and may i say you have a beautiful space. This recipe sounds fantastic to me. I am thinking I will make individuals in ramekin with some salad for side 🙂 what say ! Thanks for sharing it with Hearth and Soul Hop
This looks deliciously heart, true comfort food.
“The pile” … lol! Do you know how many piles I have lying around my house. I seem to be getting further and further behind since the pre-term labor challenges (ended up making it to 38 weeks) and birth of my daughter! Anyway… this sounds really good, truly a gem. And I am all about southern food myself. Thanks for linking this at
Make a Food-“e”-Friend Monday.
You did a really great job! Thank you for sharing this at Masterpiece Monday. Have a great week, Mary :O)
This does sound yummy and looks it too! I am allergic to mushrooms so will have to leave ’em out and use cream of chicken soup instead. I’ll probably substitute white grape juice, chxn broth or water for the wine since I never have any on hand. But this is definitely a keeper, I think! Thanks for linking up to Making Your Home Sing Monday.
This sounds scrumptious…I don’t like mushrooms so I’d exchange them for celery and either a cream of celery soup or cream of chicken…yummers…thanx for the recipe…I think my family will LOVE this~!!
Looking forward to trying this tonight! I subbed chicken broth for the wine and froze it, so I hope it’s still nice and creamy. 🙂
Definitely let me know what you think, Vanderbilt Wife! We loved it!
Christina – I got this recipe from OAMM. On Sunday I followed the directions for everything up until you put the cubed bread on top. I put the chicken mixture into an 8×8, covered and stored in fridge (and bread mixture stored separate in fridge) and then last night I put it together and baked it. The wine taste was totally overpowering to the point that hubby complained (he’ll eat anything and never complains). Do you think that happened because I let it sit overnight in the fridge? I think this should be an awesome dish but somehow I made it taste terrible….what do you think I did wrong?
Shannon — My first thought is, if you decide to try this again, add the wine to the pan before the soup and let it reduce down a bit. That should cook off any of the alcohol flavor. I’m not sure what kind of wine you used — I usually use something that I would drink (not the cooking wines you buy in the grocery store), they tend to have better flavor. You can also leave the wine out all together. Just replace it with chicken broth or water.
I hope this helps. I’m sorry you were disappointed in the recipe. I know what it’s like to get all excited about a new recipe and it not meet your expectations.
Thanks for your question!
Thanks for this recipe! I wanted to let you know – I modified it and blogged it here: http://www.everynothingwonderful.com/2010/11/recipe-italian-chicken-casserole-for.html

Thanks for reading!
Hi- this sounds yummy but I don’t see where the cooked chicken comes in? Do you layer it or mix it with the ingredients and then top with bread?
Hi Sandi — Thanks for pointing out that I forgot to include “add the chicken” to the last step! This is what happens when you try to write blog posts at 11 pm after working a full day! 🙂 I updated the recipe on the post — just add the cooked check when you add the roasted red peppers and stir to combine.
Thanks for reading!

Boy does this sound good. And another great way to use up some bread, especially if homemade! Instead of bookmarking this recipe, I have clicked on a feed. Thanks.

Looks so yummy. Is it kinda like stuffing? Can’t wait to try it. Thanks for linkin it up to tasty tuesdays.
Thanks, Alicia! The topping is not as soft as stuffing. The outsides of the bread cube get crispy while the insides stay nice and soft (depending on the freshness of the bread you use) and the bottoms of the bread cubes soak up all of the yummy sauce.
The sauce is the best part! I would definitely serve it with noodles or rice — something that will soak it up!
Enjoy and please let me know how you make out if you make it!
Thanks for reading!
This looks simple and delicious! I love these quick comforting meals, thanks!
