Merlot, Oh man this dish was great. DH loved it and it's a keeper.. Thank you so much for a great recipe.. I love casseroles so if you have more let me know.. Definately a keeper in my recipe's.. edited to add, this is one of my families favorite recipe's. In the last two days I have had a couple friends ask for the recipe. Also we are having a foreign exchange student come in a couple months and our sons said mom you have to make him that crunchy chicken casserole. Merlot I can't thank you enough for sharing this recipe. Dh was telling people at our son's game last night thinking about having this recipe, makes his mouth water. That is more than 5 stars Highly recommended!!

    Wonderful dish! I doubled the sauce ingredients (mayo, cream of chicken soup and lemon) as suggested and chopped up the water chestnuts. This recipes deserves 5 stars.

    Melissa Bell - If you prefer more sauce in this dish, I see no reason why you cannot increase the amount of Cream of Chicken Soup and mayo. Also, the water chestnut slices can be halved or quartered, depending on preference. I do not doubt that you had trouble "spreading" the corn flake/butter mixture. It should have been "sprinkled" over the top of the dish. Hope this helps if you make it again.

    We loved this flavorful chicken casserole. The added crunch makes it a real winner. An easy to assemble make ahead, perfect to have on hand for those week end meals. I added a green salad and some crusty bread ... thank you Merlot, for a recipe that allows me to serve a delicious meal and enjoy my company at the same time!

    Merlot, this is really a delicious casserole! I just finished eating it and it was so good! I made the mistake of buying "Cream of Celery" soup instead of "Cream of Chicken" soup (that's what I get for relying on my memory when grocery shopping) but I don't think that the end product suffered at all! I made the recipe as stated and I liked it just the way it is! The cornflake crumb topping is just right for this dish. I plan on taking some of this for lunch tomorrow and even though I just finished eating it, I can't wait! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe, Merlot!

    I love this recipe. I added a can of cream of mushroom soup and instead of corn flakes, I used cheddar flavored potato chips. Everyone loved it and I will make this again and again. Thanks for sharing.

    Creamy and delicous is how I would describe this casserole. We loved the celery in this recipe and the crunch of the almonds and water chestnuts! This is one comforting meal and so easy to put together. Thanks, Merlot!

    Made it for company. They loved it. Brought the leftovers to a sick friend and her husband. THEY loved it. Making copies for all. Many thanks. Did not change a thing. Wonder how far in advance it can be made? Any suggestions regarding that?

    DH and I enjoyed the heck out of this. I used Healthy Request, 98% fat free chicken soup, low fat mayo, and added a sprinkle of cayenne pepper. It was absolutely delicious. This is a great recipe to use up that left over chicken. I'll be making this often. Thanks Merlot for another great one!!!

    Excellent! I left out the nuts and sprinkled on top when it came out of the oven. This was for the benefit of a family member who is sight impaired. Great recipe!
