For an extra layer of flavor, consider sautéing the chopped onion in a little butter until softened before adding it to the chicken mixture. Feel free to add other vegetables to the casserole, such as chopped celery, mushrooms, or peas. If you prefer a lighter casserole, you can substitute plain Greek yogurt for some of the mayonnaise. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
