Ingredients

Scale

  • 3 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie or boiled)

  • 1 box (6 oz) stuffing mix (such as Stove Top)

  • 1 can (10 oz) cream of chicken soup

  • 1 cup sour cream

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • ½ cup milk

  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (optional)

  • 2 tbsp butter (melted)

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ½ tsp black pepper

  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp onion powder

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven – Set the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

  • Prepare the stuffing – In a bowl, combine the stuffing mix with melted butter and hot water as directed on the package. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

  • Mix the creamy sauce – In another bowl, stir together cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth.

  • Assemble the casserole – Spread shredded chicken evenly across the baking dish. Pour the creamy mixture over the chicken, spreading it evenly.

  • Add cheese – Sprinkle half the shredded cheddar cheese over the creamy layer.

  • Add vegetables (optional) – Evenly scatter mixed vegetables if using.

  • Top with stuffing – Spoon the prepared stuffing over the top, spreading evenly.

  • Bake until bubbly – Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes until the stuffing is golden brown and the casserole is hot throughout.

  • Add final cheese layer (optional) – In the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle remaining cheese on top and bake until melted.

  • Rest and serve – Let cool for 5 minutes before serving for the best texture.
