I still remember the first time I tasted Neiman Marcus Chicken Casserole. It was on a trip to Texas, visiting a dear friend who had invited me to lunch at a small, cozy cafe inside a Neiman Marcus store. The name on the menu intrigued me, and I couldn't resist ordering it.
The moment I took my first bite, I was hooked. The creamy texture, the tender chicken, and that perfect, crispy topping—it was nothing short of magic on a plate! I immediately wanted to recreate that dish, and after a few attempts, I finally nailed it.
Every time I make this casserole, it's not just about the taste—it’s a reminder of that special trip, my friendship, and the memories we created. Whether you’re cooking for family, friends, or yourself, this dish will definitely bring a smile to your face!
