Poppyseed Chicken

4 cups chopped or shredded chicken

1 cup chicken broth

2 cans cream of chicken soup

½ cup sour cream

Topping

1 cup melted butter or margarine

3 cups crushed Chicken in a Biskit crackers

2 Tbsp poppy seeds

Combine chicken, chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and sour cream. Combine butter, crackers, poppy seeds in a separate bowl. Pour chicken mixture into 1 9x13, or 2 8x8 baking dishes. Top with cracker topping. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes. Serve over rice

This is the recipe I use, but I’ve seen several variations. My mom puts more chicken in, and you can use Ritz crackers instead of Chicken in a Biskit. The original recipe has ½ cup of butter, 1 ½ cups crushed crackers, and 1 Tbsp poppy seeds, but my family likes more topping, so I double it.
