My family loves this and it's great for pot lucks. It freezes well and I frequently divide it into smaller casseroles for the 2 of us.

How To Make make ahead chicken casserole
-
1Boil chicken breasts until done (I like to add some poultry seasoning to the water). Cool then cut into pieces.
-
2In a large bowl put rice, chicken, green peppers, celery, water chestnuts, and onions.
-
3In a small bowl wisk together soup, chicken broth, mayonnaise, and almonds. Add to rice and chicken mixture.
-
4Mix all together well. Cover and store in refrigerator overnight.
-
5When ready to bake pour into sprayed 9x12 casserole dish and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour uncovered. Remove and put crushed potatoe chips on top and bake another 15 minutes.
-
6NOTE: This can be made early in the day, refrigerated, and baked at dinner time. I think the longer it sits the better it tastes.
