Ingrédients
Main Ingredients
- 2 to 3 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie or baked)
- 1 can cream of chicken soup (10.5 oz)
- 1/2 cup sour cream or mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1 box stuffing mix (6 oz, traditional or cornbread)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Start by gathering all the ingredients you need for the Easy Chicken Stuffing Bake. Shred the chicken if you're using a rotisserie or baked chicken and set it aside.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure your casserole cooks evenly.
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream or mayonnaise, and chicken broth. Mix well until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and spread the chicken mixture evenly across the bottom.
- In a separate bowl, prepare the stuffing mix according to the package instructions. Use slightly less water than directed to prevent sogginess.
- Spoon the prepared stuffing over the chicken mixture, ensuring it covers the chicken evenly.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the stuffing.
- Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
- Once out of the oven, allow the casserole to rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
- Spoon out portions to serve and enjoy it warm.
Notes
For enhanced flavor, consider adding shredded cheese to the stuffing or sautéed herbs in the chicken mixture. Fresh parsley sprinkled on top before serving adds color and freshness.
