ZUCCHINI CHICKEN CASSEROLE WITH CROUTONS

Steps:

• Slice zucchini 1/4 inch thick. Blanch briefly in salted water until crisp/tender then drain.
• Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet and saute carrots and onions until tender, not brown.
• Fold in soup, sour cream and about 1/2 C of the chicken broth and about 2/3 of the croutons. Gently fold drained zucchini into mixture. If the mixture seems a little on the dry side then more of the chicken broth until you get the right consistency. The croutons will absorb some of the moisture as the dish cooks so you want the casserole to be nice and juicy before you put it in the oven.
• Place in greased casserole and put remaining croutons on top. Melt the remaining 2 T of butter and pour over the casserole. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes.

Pat the outside of the chicken dry with paper towels, brush it with the melted butter, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Tie the legs together with kitchen string and tuck the wing tips under the body of the chicken.
• Roast for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the juices run clear when you cut between the leg and the thigh. Cover with foil and allow to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. (The onions may burn, but the flavor is good.)
• Meanwhile, heat a large saute pan with 2 tablespoons of olive oil until very hot. Lower the heat to medium-low and saute the bread cubes, tossing frequently, until nicely browned, 8 to
• 10 minutes. Add more olive oil, as needed, and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place the croutons on a serving platter. Slice the chicken and place it, plus all the pan juices, over the croutons. Sprinkle with salt and serve warm.
