Casserole with Chicken, Pumpkin and Mushrooms

Chicken fillet cooked with mushrooms and pumpkin is a great option for a healthy and tasty lunch or dinner. Champignons, onions and pumpkin are fried before baking for a richer taste. In the oven, chicken, vegetables and mushrooms exchange juices and flavors. And cheese and sour cream add a creamy taste and give the casserole an appetizing crust.

Cook: 1 hour

Servings: 6

Ingredients

Chicken fillet – 500 g
Pumpkin – 400 g
Champignons – 250 g
Hard cheese – 150 g
Sour cream – 75 g (3 tablespoons)
Onions – 120 g (1 pc.)
Salt – 0.5 teaspoon
Ground black pepper – 1 pinch (to taste)
Sunflower oil – 30 ml (2 tablespoons)

For filing (optional):

Fresh thyme – 2-3 sprigs

Directions

Prepare all ingredients. It is better to use chicken fillet not frozen, but fresh, so the finished casserole will be juicier.
Peel the champignons, freshen the cuts on the legs and chop the mushrooms coarsely – into halves or quarters.
Heat the sunflower oil in a frying pan, add the mushrooms and fry for 2-3 minutes, until the color changes.
Peel the onions, rinse and cut into thin half rings. Remove the tough peel from the pumpkin, remove the inner part with the seeds and cut the flesh into cubes about 2 cm side.
Add the onion to the mushrooms in the pan and fry together for 3-4 minutes.
Put pieces of pumpkin in a pan with mushrooms and onions, stir and fry for another 5-7 minutes under a closed lid. Turn on the oven to heat up to 180 degrees.
When the squash is soft and pierces easily with a fork, remove the pan from the heat.
Cut the chicken fillet into any sized slices.
Transfer the chicken to a baking dish, add salt, ground black pepper and stir in the spiced chicken.
Transfer the vegetables with mushrooms to the chicken dish and stir
Spread sour cream on top of the baking dish. Grate the cheese on a fine grater and put on top of the sour cream.
Send the baking dish to an oven preheated to 180 degrees. Bake the dish for about 40 minutes (be guided by the characteristics of your oven).
If the casserole quickly turns golden brown on top, cover the tin with foil.
The casserole with chicken, pumpkin and mushrooms is ready. Arrange the dish on portioned plates and serve, garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
Soft chicken, pumpkin melting in your mouth and slightly elastic champignons under a cheese cap are a great option for tasty and satisfying food for your family!

Bon appetit!
