Ingredients
Scale
Stuffing
- 1 package Stove Top stuffing mix (or more if desired)
- 1 ½ cups water or chicken broth
- ¼ cup butter
Vegetables
- 3 stalks celery, diced
- 1 onion, diced
Chicken and Creamy Mixture
- 1 whole rotisserie chicken, cooked and shredded
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- ½ can cream of mushroom soup
- 8 ounces sour cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a 9×13-inch baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Stuffing: Bring the water or chicken broth to a boil. Stir in the stuffing mix, then remove from heat. Cover and let it sit until the stuffing absorbs the liquid. Fluff with a fork once done.
- Sauté Vegetables: In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and celery and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until softened and fragrant.
- Mix Soups and Sour Cream: In a bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, and sour cream. Mix thoroughly until smooth and well blended.
- Assemble Casserole: Spread the shredded rotisserie chicken evenly in the prepared baking dish. Layer the sautéed onions and celery over the chicken and season with salt and pepper to taste. Spread the creamy soup mixture over the vegetables, then top it all with the fluffed stuffing mix.
- Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, or until the casserole is bubbly and the stuffing topping is browned and crisp. Allow the casserole to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Use chicken broth in place of water to add extra flavor to the stuffing.
- Feel free to add extra vegetables like carrots or mushrooms to the sauté mix for added nutrition.
- Leftover rotisserie chicken is perfect for this recipe and saves time.
- For a lower-fat option, use reduced-fat sour cream and cream soups.
- Ensure the casserole has cooled slightly to allow it to set and make serving easier.
