Description
A cozy and comforting baked dish with tender chicken, creamy sauce, and buttery stuffing—perfect for weeknights or holidays.
Ingredients
4 cups cooked, shredded chicken
1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
1 (10.5 oz) can cream of celery soup
1 cup sour cream
½ cup milk
½ cup chopped celery (optional)
½ cup chopped onion (optional)
½ tsp garlic powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 (6 oz) box seasoned stuffing mix
½ cup butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, mix the cream of chicken soup, cream of celery soup, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir in celery and onion if using.
Fold in the shredded chicken until well coated.
Spread the chicken mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
In a separate bowl, mix the stuffing mix with melted butter until moistened.
Sprinkle stuffing evenly over the top of the chicken mixture.
Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes, until the top is golden and the casserole is bubbly.
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Add frozen peas or chopped green beans for color and texture.
Use cream in place of milk for a richer result.
Swap in leftover turkey instead of chicken, especially around the holidays.
For added flavor, top with shredded cheddar cheese during the last 10 minutes of baking.
Homemade stuffing can be used in place of boxed; adjust butter accordingly.
