My Weber Q chicken and mushroom casserole recipe is super creamy, amazingly tender and built to feed a small army. It also makes an ideal dish for entertaining.

My family and I absolutely love a good casserole such as Leftover Roast Lamb Stroganoff and Slow Cooker Beef Casserole.
And this Weber Q chicken and mushroom casserole doesn't disappoint!
Is there anything better than the smell of Sautéed mushrooms, onions and garlic? I can't think of any.
You'll be amazed by how juicy and tender the chicken is as it's been baking in the delicious creamy sauce.
And it's pretty simple to put together, throw in the Weber Q and serve.
The best part is this recipe will feed at least 6 people, and if there just happen to be leftovers. It can be easily reheated instead of thrown away.
I know you're going to love this one, guys!

Don't like mushrooms? I got your back
I use simple white mushrooms for this recipe, but a great option is Brown Portabella Mushrooms if you are not a fan.
If you don't like mushrooms at all, then you can definitely substitute them for other alternative vegetables such as:
- Asparagus
- Frozen peas
- Carrots
- Broccoli
- Cauliflower
Keep in mind that any alternatives that you pick are sturdy vegetables. Avoid veggies such as zucchini because they turn mushy.
How to make Weber Q chicken and mushroom casserole?
1) Sautéing the chicken:

Begin slicing the chicken breast into strips approximately 1 inch apart, much like chicken tenders.
Slice each strip in half again if you find the chicken breast too thick.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
Place the chicken into a zip lock bag, add plain/all-purpose flour, and then toss the chicken around the flour to make sure it's fully coated.
Shake off the excess flour and place the chicken onto a wire rack.
Over med-high heat, add 3 tablespoon of olive oil to a large pan/skillet.
Sauté the chicken on both sides until it's a light golden brown.
Power Tip: The chicken is effectively cooked twice, so there is no need to overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches if need be.
Transfer the chicken to a 13 x 9 casserole baking dish making sure to layout the chicken evenly. Work in batches if need be.
2) Sautéing the mushrooms:

Wipe the pan/skillet with a paper towel, and over med-high heat, add 3 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the sliced mushrooms, diced onion, and sauté for 5-7 minutes while continuously stirring.
Crush 3 cloves of garlic into the pan/skillet and continue stirring until you can smell the wonderful aroma of garlic. 1-2 minutes will do the trick.
When the garlic is fragrant, transfer the mushroom and onion mixture to the baking dish spreading evenly across the chicken.
Fire up your Weber Q

Set up your Weber Q for indirect cooking using a Baby Q or Family Q convection tray and trivet.
Baby Q: Turn the gas control knob to the START/HI position and light your Weber Q. Close the lid and pre-heat for 10 minutes.
Family Q: Turn both gas control knobs to the START/HI position and light your Weber Q. Close the lid and pre-heat for 10 minutes.
3) Making the creamy sauce:

Wipe the pan/skillet out again using a paper towel and add 3 tablespoon of unsalted butter.
Wait for the butter to melt, then whisk in 3 tablespoon of plain/all-purpose flour.
Continue whisking until the sauce thickens (1-2 minutes).
Add 1 ½ cups of chicken stock/broth, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, ¼ teaspoon black pepper and 1 cup of pre-mixed half & half milk and heavy whipping cream to the pan.
Continue to whisk until the sauce reaches a light simmer, then season with salt to taste.
Pour the sauce evenly over the baking dish, covering the chicken and mushrooms.
Cover the baking dish with aluminium foil, and it's now ready for the Weber Q.
