1 Set the oven to 350°F (175°C). Coat a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with grease so the casserole releases easily after baking.

2 Add the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, and sour cream to a large bowl. Stir until the chicken is evenly covered and the filling looks smooth, then spread it in an even layer across the prepared baking dish.

3 Place the crushed buttery round crackers in a separate bowl. Pour in the melted butter and mix until all the crumbs are evenly coated.

4 Scatter the butter-coated cracker crumbs across the chicken filling, covering the surface as evenly as possible.

5 Transfer the dish to the oven and bake for about 30–35 minutes. It is ready when the filling is hot and bubbling and the cracker layer has turned golden brown.

6 Remove the casserole from the oven and leave it to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
