This concoction was terribly bland tasting. Will not make again. It definitely did not live up to the high praises of the other reviewers, nor was it what I expected.

We loved it. My 4yr. old said double thumbs up. I deleted the sherry, added some cheese and used half Ritz and half club crackers. It was great. We will make it again.

This recipe is great! It preps in no time. I didn't add the sherry - but I might try it next time.

We eat this recipe often and love it. I just cut up raw chicken instead of cooking first. Both my boys and husband eat it with no compliants. I serve it with rice pilaf from a box. Easy and good flavor each time.

I thought I remembered having this dish at my best-friend's house when I was young and just loving it, so I made it for my husband the other night exactly according to recipe (minus the sherry as we don't use alcohol) and it left a lot to be desired. The poppy seed taste was just overwhelming. I am not picky about food by ANY means, but I could barely eat this. You have to really like poppy seeds in order to like this casserole, as it is the only distinguishing taste in the dish besides the butter and cracker (I used Ritz) topping. Ech.

I shred the chicken or use the canned chunks if i'm in a hurry and put that on the bottom of the dish. I mix the soup, low-far sour cream (reg sour cream makes it too rich for me) , and a can of mushrooms (no sherry) and put that on top. Then i mix the melted butter, cracker crumbs, and poppy seeds and sprinkle them over the whole thing. This is one of the BEST recipes and i make it often! My husband and 2 year old LOVE it and i usually have to make two batches so we have leftovers for lunch the next day.

One of our favorite dishes of all time. I make it with both chicken tenderloins and chicken breasts. I substitute low fat ingredients and you would never know. I serve this dish over egg noodles and there are hardly ever a leftover! My 2 year old just loves it too.

This dish was good, nothing special -- but E-Z! The bigger breasts were not cooked through after 45 mins so I would say just bake for a full hour. 8 oz. of Ritz crackers? According to a 14.5 oz. box, that's over half a box of crackers! I think you can get away with much less than that. The crackers absorbed most of the sauce so it was a bit dry, no sauce for the rice. That may have interferred with the cooking of the chicken. I left the breasts whole.

I noticed that some people said this recipe was bland. Ritz crackers are the answer!! Try that and see the difference! Bon Appetit!

After raving to my mother for a whole year about a poppy seed chicken casserole I had at a party last spring, I found this recipe and insisted we try it. We were disappointed. It was bland and salty--tasted like your ordinary chicken-and-condensed soup casserole. I did substitute buttermilk for a bit of the sour cream b/c I only had about 6 oz--maybe that's where I messed up but somehow I don't think the taste could be affected THAT much by such a small change. A waste of rather-expensive poppy seeds. I'm still hunting for something that tastes like the poppy seed casserole I had last Spring.

I made this for a couple of friends and they both loved it. I did make a lot of modifications to the recipe based on others suggestions, therefore it only gets 4 stars. I used the French Onion dip instead of sour cream, used chicken breasts rather than shredding it, used cream of mushroom soup and added fresh cut mushrooms. I also used white wine instead of sherry b/c I had it on hand. Next time I would like to make up the mixture, let the chicken marinate in it over night and cook it on low heat so the chicken would be more moist.

This turned out to be great! My boyfriend absolutely loved it! I even made it ahead one night and it was great reheated. I omitted the sherry and I added: finely chopped celery, onion, fresh garlic, and blended it all in with sourcream/soup mix. I also added softened cream cheese and cooked egg noodles! All of the additions made this simple recipe 'gourmet'!

A friend of mine gave me almost the exact recipe and my whole family loves it. I am not a very good cook but this is easy. And best of all I made it for my mother and she asked me for the recipe, something that she has never done before.

I followed the suggestion to use onion dip instead of plain sour cream to add more flavor. I also added a little shredded cheese for flavor. While this was good, and my family ate it, I didn't get the rave reviews I expected based on some of the other reviews.

I was a bit disappointed by this recipe. I thought it was really lacking in flavor, and I even added some dried onion to the mix. I added fresh broccoli as well, and don't think that was the best idea, it seemed to give it a weird aftertaste. I thought it had too much of a sour cream taste, maybe cutting back on that would help. Not sure, with some doctoring it could be better but I think I'll stick with other recipes.

Ver easy and delicious. You can use french onion dip in place of the sour cream- it adds more flavor. Also, you can use different soups. Cream of mushroom or celery work well. This is one of my favorites. I told people from work about it and they tried it and all love it too. Also a bit hit with children.
