Ingredients
Scale
Chicken
- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, diced into 1-inch pieces
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Creamy Sauce
- 2 cans (10.75 ounces each) condensed cream of chicken soup (or homemade cream of chicken soup)
- 1/4 cup milk
Stuffing
- 2 boxes (6 ounces each) Stove Top Chicken Stuffing mix
- 1 ½ cups chicken broth
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a 9×13-inch baking dish by spraying it with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Prepare the chicken: Cut the boneless skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces and spread them evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Season the chicken pieces generously with salt and pepper for basic seasoning.
- Make the creamy sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of chicken soup and milk until smooth and well combined. Pour this mixture evenly over the chicken in the baking dish, ensuring all the pieces are coated.
- Add the stuffing: Sprinkle both boxes of dry Stove Top Chicken Stuffing mix evenly over the top of the chicken and creamy sauce layer.
- Pour the broth: Carefully pour 1 ½ cups of chicken broth over the stuffing mix, covering as much of the dry stuffing as possible to ensure it becomes moist and flavorful while baking.
- Bake covered: Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the stuffing is tender and slightly golden.
- Rest before serving: Remove the casserole from the oven and let it stand, uncovered, for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the dish to set slightly before serving. Enjoy your warm, hearty chicken and stuffing bake!
Notes
- The recipe was updated on 11/17/22 to include a second box of stuffing for a more substantial topping and enhanced texture.
- For a homemade touch, use your own cream of chicken soup instead of canned condensates to reduce sodium and preservatives.
- You can substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth for a slightly different flavor and to reduce fat content.
- Ensure the stuffing mix is fully covered with broth to avoid dry or crunchy patches after baking.
