Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Have a 9×9-inch casserole pan or dish standing by.
In a large fry pan, heat two tablespoons of butter and one tablespoon of the oil over medium heat and add shallots. Cook for 2 minutes, increase heat to high and add mushrooms. Cook mushrooms on high heat for 8-10 minutes tossing and turning often until browned (they will give up some liquid then pull it back in again). Remove to a bowl and return pan to medium high heat.
Add two more tablespoons of butter and the remaining olive oil and once hot, cook chicken strips in two batches browning on both sides for about two minutes each (cook them slightly undercooked as they will finish cooking in the oven). As you finish each batch, add directly to the casserole pan and layer half the mushrooms over each batch.
Once the last batch of chicken leaves the pan, deglaze with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits.
After the wine evaporates, add all of the condensed soup, 2 teaspoons of the poppy seeds, celery salt, pepper, cream and milk and heat just to hot. Pour this over the chicken and mushrooms.
In a small bowl, mix the last two tablespoons of butter with the last teaspoon of poppy seeds and the crushed Ritz. Pour over chicken mixture and bake uncovered for 20 minutes or until browned and bubbly.
