What each ingredient does

Shrimp
Provides the main protein and a tender, mild seafood flavor in the casserole.
Long grain and wild rice
Gives the casserole its bulk and chewy, firm texture.
Cream of chicken soup
Binds the ingredients into a creamy, moist sauce that holds the casserole together.
Margarine
Adds fat for sautéing the vegetables and carries their flavor through the dish.
Ritz crackers
Form a crisp, golden topping through browning in the oven.

The step that matters

Bake until bubbly. Baking until the sauce bubbles throughout ensures it is heated through and the cream soup thickens, while the shrimp are fully cooked since they were already cooked and only need reheating.
