Capital Chicken Casserole

Capital Chicken Casserole is a French classic but with the added flavour of artichoke hearts. They add a subtle smooth texture and flavour which is hard to beat. This casserole is so full of body with an aroma that will have your family queueing up. I will admit I cheat by using a tin of cream of chicken soup but it means this main dish is ready in only 75 minutes.
