RECIPE BY Oxmoor House

This recipe makes two casseroles. Keep one, and give the other to a friend, along with baking instructions.

Ingredients

  • 1 (32-ounce) container chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 3/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1 (12-ounce) jar marinated quartered artichoke hearts, drained and coarsely chopped
  • 1 (12-ounce) jar roasted red bell peppers, drained and chopped
  • 4 cups shredded cooked chicken (about 1 large rotisserie chicken)
  • 1 (16-ounce) jar roasted garlic Alfredo sauce (we tested with Classico)
  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded Italian cheese blend

How to Make It

Step 1

Bring first 3 ingredients to a boil in a large saucepan; gradually whisk in cornmeal. Cook 4 minutes or until thickened and bubbly, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in Parmesan cheese. Spoon polenta evenly into 2 (8") square disposable ovenproof pans (see Note below). Cool 10 minutes.

Step 2

Sprinkle artichoke hearts, peppers, and chicken evenly over polenta. Pour Alfredo sauce over chicken in both pans. Sprinkle with basil; top with Italian cheese blend. Cover and chill until ready to bake.

Step 3

Before baking, place pan on center of a baking sheet. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 25 minutes or until casserole is thoroughly heated.

Step 4

Note: We tested with Glad OvenWare disposable pans. Clip and save instructions from back or bottom panel, and share these instructions when gift giving.
