Easy Chicken and Sausage Cassoulet


When the weekend rolls around, I generally like to prepare something mouth-watering, but that doesn't require spending hours in the kitchen. This Easy Chicken and Sausage Cassoulet is pretty much a shortcut to cassoulet heaven but equally delicious. The meat is sauteed and tossed with herbs and lots of onions and aromatics. The mixture is then sprinkled with a panko topping and baked in the oven. The combination of the sausage, chicken, and beans is incredibly delicious and comforting. My family loved this meal. They loved all of the flavors and textures and were just as happy with the leftovers for lunch the next day. And the best part is that this cassoulet can be assembled in advance to be ready for you to pop in the oven. Serve with a salad and great bread, and this is a meal worthy of any Sunday dinner.
