Ingredients for Rotisserie Chicken and Vegetables:

How to make Rotisserie Chicken and Vegetables:
Preheat oven temperature to 350 degrees.
To a large bowl add in all of the ingredients except for 1 cup of the cheese. Stir well.
Spray a large casserole dish with non stick spray.
Add the casserole into the baking dish and spread out.

How to store leftover roasted chicken casserole:
Fridge: Keep the chicken casserole in the baking dish or remove it to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Freeze: A make-ahead tip, if you want to make this up to freeze, store it in a freezer-safe container and store it for up to 3 months in the freezer. Pull it out 24 hours before you need it to let it thaw in the fridge.
Tips and tricks for making this rotisserie-style chicken casserole:
Chicken to use:
For this recipe, I like to buy a whole rotisserie chicken and shred it using both light and dark meat. However, you could also cook up some chicken breasts and shred them before putting this recipe together.
Just be sure to cook the chicken to the recommended temperature of 165 degrees F (check this with a meat thermometer in the thickest part of the breast).
Can I make this with raw chicken?
No, the chicken must be cooked ahead of putting the chicken casserole together. This is why I like to use a rotisserie chicken for this recipe, Grab some from Sam’s Club or Costco and let it cool down for easy shredding.
What to use instead of sour cream:
Another great option instead of using sour cream is Greek yogurt. It is a bit healthier and adds a good amount of extra protein too!
