Amish Chicken Corn Casserole has gotten rave reviews. It first ran on the Amish365 website about 15 years ago and received a lot of 5-star reviews from readers. I don't think it's run since and those old, old, old posts are not even available anymore, unfortunately.

But this recipe comes to us from an Amish woman outside Bremen, Indiana. It's an amazingly hearty, heaping casserole that feeds a lot of hungry people. Give it a try!

The original recipe calls for "heavy noodles" which would be a thicker noodle, but, we've had readers try it with square noodles, light angel hair type noodles, any type of noodle works well with this recipe. If you want a casserole that is easy with amazing texture and flavor this is a 5-star favorite!
Some people wonder why we run so many casserole recipes on this website? The reality is, however, that Amish Cooks really rely on casseroles. They are easy to assemble, feed large groups of people, and the amounts can be adjusted according to how many people you’re feeding. Plus, casseroles travel so easily. You can put it in a casserole dish, bake it, cover it, stick it in a box, and it can bounce along on a rough buggy ride without really messing with the dish's appearance any.
There are as many different casserole recipes in Amish kitchens as there are Amish people. There’s so many different variations, most of them tend to be fairly bland when it comes to spices and seasonings. But you can take care of that yourself, by adding additional flavorings if you want: red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion salt, all of those are perfectly reasonable additions to a recipe like this
This casserole is particularly popular at this time of year when corn is very much in season. Yes, you can use store bought corn for this casserole and it will be just fine, but you can also use fresh this time of year
Boil the noodles until they are nice and tender.
This is the corn mixture. This is a can of creamed corn, and, yeah, it is great this way. But you can use fresh corn in its place!
This casserole looks beautiful out of the oven. Interestingly, this particular recipe doesn't call for shredded cheese. I mean, you could add it. But it is kind of nice to have one without it. So many Amish casserole recipes rely on a smothering of melted cheese.

Hi Kevin,
I've been a reader of your site for a few months now - really enjoy! Last week I was on a bus tour through Pennsylvania where we stopped at a nice town called 'Intercourse'. We ate a great restaurant called 'A Bird in a Hand'. Everything was delicious and homemade causing me to make myself miserable for eating so much! I'm from Indiana but would consider traveling back to this restaurant just for the wonderful food.
Ernestine (Bet you never heard of my name!)

Yum, thanks for the restaurant recommendation, I'll remember that next time I am out there! Where in IND are you located? (and, yes, I have heard of the name Ernestine, it's been years and years, though...I think when I was a kid I have a vague memory of knowing someone or knowing of someone with that name)

Absolutely loved these 2 towns. For shopping and eating. My husband and I traveled east and we stayed in a little motel outside of Bird in Hand. When I was last through the area, it was still there. Food was absolutely wonderful. And man did I check out every store.
Kevin Williams
So much there to explore and check out, I agree!
