Description
A classic, comforting casserole featuring tender chicken, savory stuffing, and a creamy, rich sauce baked to golden perfection.
Ingredients
4 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
1 (6-ounce) box dry savory stuffing mix, divided
1 (10.5-ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 (10.5-ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Step 2: Spread half of the dry stuffing mix evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Step 3: In a large bowl, combine the shredded or diced cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and chicken broth. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
Step 4: Pour the chicken mixture evenly over the stuffing layer in the baking dish.
Step 5: Sprinkle the remaining half of the dry stuffing mix over the chicken mixture. If using, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the stuffing.
Step 6: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly around the edges and the topping is golden brown and crispy. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Notes
For an extra savory boost, try adding a teaspoon of dried sage or poultry seasoning to the chicken mixture. If you prefer a richer, less tangy flavor, you can reduce the sour cream slightly and add a bit more chicken broth.
