Steps
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180 °C) (175°C (350 °F)). Lightly grease a medium casserole dish, approximately 9 x 13 inches, and set it aside.
Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Transfer it to a paper-towel-lined plate, crumble it when cool enough to handle, and reserve some for garnishing.
In a large bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup and sour cream. Stir until smooth and evenly blended.
Add the shredded cheddar, sliced green onions, slivered almonds, and a few dashes of hot sauce. Stir until the ingredients are distributed throughout the creamy mixture.
Add the cooked chicken and most of the crumbled bacon to the bowl. Fold gently until the chicken is completely coated without breaking it into an overly fine texture.
Spread the chicken mixture evenly into the prepared casserole dish. Smooth the surface so the topping will brown evenly.
Crush the Ritz crackers into coarse crumbs. Combine them with the melted butter until the crumbs are evenly moistened.
Scatter the buttery cracker mixture evenly over the chicken filling, covering the casserole from edge to edge.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the casserole is hot, bubbling around the edges, and the cracker topping is browned and crisp.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes. Finish with the reserved green onions and bacon, then serve warm.
Notes
The transcript does not specify exact amounts for the chicken, bacon, cracker topping, butter, baking temperature, or baking time; those quantities and timings are practical estimates based on the described casserole. Use additional hot sauce according to taste.
