Great recipe as written. Used left over rotisserie chicken this time, and white pepper. Also topped it before going into the oven with 1/2 C grated sharp cheddar and a dusting of paprika. Looked and tasted delicious.
Can I use something other then the mayo? Not a huge fan.
Miracle whip?
Just made this. The only thing I did different was add a cup of lightly salted cashew pieces. It was AMAZING!!!! Better then expected!
Glad to surpass expectations!
This turned out great! I am not a fan of the mushroom, so i just omitted that and it was awesome!
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
Thank you for sharing this recipe! I prepared it today for a hearty Sunday dinner and it was a hit. I used yellow rice instead of the wild rice and decided to forego the celery and cream of celery (only used cream of chicken). Very flavorful. Thank you
You’re welcome!
don’t like wild rice-could I use regular white rice instead? Or would that affect the outcome?
Of course. Use whatever you like!
Thanks for sharing. My family and I loved it!
Try using Cream of Mushroom and Cream of Celery instead next time, I’ve made a chicken a rice casserole with those two soups for years and its a huge family favorite.
do you cook the soup before you add it ? or just pour it straight from the can ?
Just straight from the can…
This recipe looks fabulous
I was so tired of making the same dish over and over, so I looked online for recipes, and stumbled upon this..I was leary of the amount of rice,it didnt look like enough for all of the ingredients, but eventually it evened out! So greatful for these types of sites for a sahm like myself,who gets tired of fixing boring dinners!!hank you so much for sharing, and I will definitely continue to try more dishes..thanks
@Anonymous,
This makes a lot! I would say about 6-8 servings.
How many servings does this recipe make?
I LOVED this casserole. I love the crunch of the celery and water chestnuts along with the rice, chicken and broccoli. They only thing we did differently is we topped with shredded cheddar cheese before baking. It was delish!
Super yummy…my 1 year old ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!! 🙂
It looks delicious, I wonder if instead of broccoli I can add another ingredient, Im allergic to broccoli, or maybe the recipe can be made without the broccoli without adding any other ingredient.
I made this last night for dinner and it was a huge hit. Thanks for another great recipe.
1 cup of uncooked wild rice equals about 4 cups cooked rice. 4(ounces) of dry rice is about 1 cup so I think around 4 cups of cooked rice.

Can’t wait to make this recipe! Looks scrumptious 🙂
this casserole looks divine.
