instructions
    1

    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).

    2

    In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat and sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until they are soft and fragrant, about 3 to 5 minutes.

    3

    Dice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add them to the skillet. Cook until they are no longer pink on the outside (about 5 to 7 minutes).

    4

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cream of mushroom soup, frozen peas, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well until everything is evenly coated.

    5

    In a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spread the chicken mixture evenly.

    6

    Top the chicken mixture with the fish sticks, arranging them in a single layer.

    7

    Sprinkle the remaining cup of cheddar cheese over the entire casserole, followed by the bread crumbs for a crunchy topping.

    8

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.

    9

    Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving.
