Chicken Casserole Mississippi

pedspeech's Note:

I don't know where I got this recipe but have been preparing it for years. The sour cream in the cracker topping is what really makes it different from other casseroles I have tried. I usually serve this with peas or green beans and some garlic bread for a comfort meal on a cold day.
