Mix all ingredients together and pour into a greased 3-quart casserole dish. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until bubbly.****

A few notes based on my "experience" with this casserole tonight. It was really, really good and I would make it again, for sure.  It is a huge casserole, though, so you might want to split it into two parts if you're cooking for two.  You could freeze one or give it to a friend.

*I used "french style" green beans.  Thought they would blend better.

** When Paula Deen made it on her show, she suggested using a pre-cooked chicken from the grocery store.  I bought a rotisserie chicken and pulled it off of the bone in large chunks, as I saw Paula Deen do, and discarded the fat and skin.

***I didn't use the Pimentos, although I'm sure they would have added nice color to the dish.

****It took more like 35 minutes in my oven to get bubbly, but I had some other things cooking in there at the same time.

Helen and her boyfriend really enjoyed this!  Me too!!
