For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth instead of water when poaching the chicken.
You can substitute other types of creamed soup, such as cream of mushroom or cream of celery, for the cream of chicken soup.
Add some chopped vegetables, such as carrots, peas, or green beans, to the casserole for extra nutrients and flavor.
If you don't have buttery round crackers, you can use other types of crackers or bread crumbs.
To prevent the cracker topping from burning, cover the casserole with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.

    I used gluten-free crackers for the topping, and it was still delicious.

    Next time, I think I'll try adding a can of drained and rinsed diced tomatoes for some acidity.
