Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 box Stove Top Stuffing (chicken flavored)
  • 1–2 lbs Chicken Breasts, boneless, skinless, diced
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of Chicken Soup
  • 1/3 cup Sour Cream
  • 16 oz Frozen Mixed Vegetables
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • 4–5 Garlic Cloves, minced

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Baking Dish: Spray a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it reaches the proper temperature while you assemble the casserole.
  2. Mix the Chicken Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced chicken breasts, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, frozen mixed vegetables, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated, creating a creamy and flavorful filling.
  3. Layer the Filling: Spread the chicken and vegetable mixture evenly onto the bottom of the prepared baking pan, ensuring it covers the entire base to create a solid layer for the casserole.
  4. Prepare the Stuffing: Follow the package directions on the Stove Top stuffing box to prepare the stuffing. This usually involves combining the stuffing mix with boiling water and butter, then fluffing it up after it absorbs the liquid.
  5. Top with Stuffing: Evenly spread the prepared stuffing mixture over the chicken and vegetable layer in the baking pan. This will form a delicious, crispy topping once baked.
  6. Bake the Casserole: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the stuffing topping is golden brown. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F to ensure safety. Serve warm.

Notes

  • You can swap frozen mixed vegetables with fresh or canned veggies if preferred.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding herbs like thyme or parsley to the chicken mixture.
  • Use low-fat sour cream or a reduced sodium cream of chicken soup for a lighter version.
  • Make sure chicken is diced into similar-sized pieces for even cooking.
  • Check stuffing package instructions carefully as preparations might vary slightly.
