Preparation
Not specified
Cooking
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lay a clean kitchen towel on the counter and spread the grated zucchini out in a single layer.
- Sprinkle the zucchini with a little salt and then cover the zucchini with another clean towel.
- Let sit at least 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, grease a 9x13-inch (23x33cm) baking dish.
- To the bottom of the baking dish, add the cubed bread, making sure the bread mostly covers the bottom of the dish.
- Add the chicken, grated onion, garlic, carrot, dried noodles, thyme, parsley, cayenne and a pinch of salt + pepper.
- Sprinkle the gouda cheese on top and add the zucchini.
- Add in the chicken broth (starting with 2 cups), wine, greek yogurt, butter and eggs.
- Using clean hands (I prefer using my hands) or a spatula, mix all the ingredients up until the bread is well moistened and everything is evenly distributed.
- If the mixture seems dry, add more broth until well moistened.
- Sprinkle the corn flakes over top the dish, cover with foil and bake on the middle rack for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for 25-30 minutes or until the top is lightly golden and the casserole is no longer jiggly.
- Remove and let sit 5 minutes before serving.
- Serve with fresh herbs if desired.
- YUM!.
