Ingredients
3 cups cooked chicken (shredded or cubed)
1 box stuffing mix (herb-seasoned, about 6 oz)
1 can cream of chicken soup (10.5 oz)
1 cup chicken broth
2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (slightly thawed)
4 tablespoons butter (melted)
1 teaspoon dried herbs (optional: thyme or parsley)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Cook and shred or cube the chicken if not already prepared. Slightly thaw the frozen vegetables.
2. In a large bowl, mix chicken, vegetables, cream of chicken soup, and chicken broth until creamy.
3. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and spread the chicken mixture evenly in the bottom.
4. In a separate bowl, prepare stuffing according to package directions using melted butter and broth.
5. Spoon stuffing over the chicken mixture and gently press to form a topping.
6. Bake uncovered for 30–35 minutes until the top is golden and edges are bubbling.
7. Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
Notes
Use rotisserie chicken to save time and add rich flavor.
Add a splash of cream or sour cream to make the casserole extra creamy.
Letting the casserole rest helps it firm up for cleaner servings.
