Karlynn’s Recipe Notes

Skill Level: This casserole recipe is very easy, especially if you happen to be making this with leftovers.
Total Time: This recipe will take you approximately 55 minutes from start to finish, and that includes cooling time.
Variations: Try using different soups for this casserole! See how you like it with Cream of Potato Soup, Cream of Broccoli, Cream of Mushroom, or even Cream of Cheddar soup. Test out different types of stuffing for the top, whether homemade or store bought. Make some Poached Chicken or Grilled Chicken Breast to use in the casserole, or add some grated cheese to the top.
Tools Needed: For this recipe, you’ll need a 9×13 casserole dish, a medium bowl, a large glass measuring cup or medium pot, and some spoons.

What You’ll Need For Ingredients

Chicken: For this recipe, we’re using cooked chicken. That could be leftover rotisserie chicken, cubed up chicken breast, or really any other cooked chicken. If you want some extra flavour from your chicken, try baking or frying chicken breasts in advance to use for this recipe. That way you can season them however you want.

Stuffing: There are many types of stuffing that you can choose from for this recipe. You could even make your own, depending on how much effort you want to put in. The main types you’ll find in the store are regular and cornbread. Use whichever you like best.

Vegetables: The easiest way to go here is to use some frozen mixed veggies. Peas and carrots, just peas, corn, etc. are all great options too. Use what you like best. You could also used canned vegetables if that’s what you have around. Just don’t use raw vegetables, since this casserole doesn’t bake long enough to properly cook most vegetables.

Soup: This recipe calls for cream of chicken and cream of celery soup, but you can use other cream-based condensed soups if you want to. You also don’t have to use two different soups if you really don’t want to, though the combination adds for depth of flavour.

Karlynn’s Tips and Tricks for Making Chicken and Stuffing Casserole

Stuffing Choices: You can have some fun here. Try Cornbread Dressing or a store bought corn bread stuffing mix for a softer top layer on this casserole. If you’d like an even more filling stuffing, make some Sausage Stuffing or Apple Sausage Crock Pot Stuffing to use. Use a chicken-flavored stuffing to enhance the chicken taste in this recipe, or try a basic seasoned stuffing for the best crunch.

Soup: Any condensed, creamy soup will work for this recipe. It’s just a matter of deciding which flavours you’d like best. If sodium is a concern for you, go ahead and choose low sodium varieties. You can even make your own soups for this recipe if you’d like! Just be sure that you adjust the amount of liquid you use since homemade soup won’t be condensed like the canned versions.
