Layers of seasoned chicken, creamy soup and stuffing all come together in this delicious Chicken and Stuffing Bake! This recipe has been a family favorite for years.
Hello, friends! I need to tell you all about this Chicken and Stuffing Bake. It’s a recipe my Mom has made for years. It is so delicious and was definitely in my top 5 favorite dinners Mom would make for us. Layers of seasoned chicken, creamy chicken soup and stuffing come together in this comforting dish.
You may already have your own version of this classic but I wanted to share the way I’ve made it through the years. First of all, I don’t use pre-cooked chicken like most of the recipes out there. I think it comes out way too dry. It’s so easy to just cook the chicken right along with everything else. It saves a lot of time and energy.
Another thing I wanted to mention is the alternative to using the canned condensed soups. I am not opposed to using them at all, but I know many are, so luckily I have a homemade version on my blog that equals two soup cans. It is a perfect replacement to use and it is really really good. It will just take you an extra 20 minutes or so to prepare then entire thing.

I hope you all enjoy this one as much as we do! I like to serve a side of broccoli or corn with it and it makes one delicious dinner!
Chicken Stuffing Bake
- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, diced in 1-inch pieces

- 2 boxes (6 ounces each) Stove Top Chicken Stuffing mix
- 1 ½ cups chicken broth
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray.

Looks delish, can’t wait to make this. Looks super easy too!
thank you. I made it today for dinner a d my mother and I loved it. Will make again.
Simple and delicious – thanks!
Can’t wait to try this. Thanks
Can you substitute water for chicken broth on this? Am making this but do not have broth on hand. 🙂
I saw another recipe that said 2 cans soup mixed with 2 cups milk. Why don’t you try that.
Next time use butter!
absolutely great recipe !! I added French fried onions on top fir 5 minutes at the end..Huge family favorite !!
I just made this for my supper for my family it was super easy
Because I’m not a cook and actually struggle with cooking, I didn’t realize that if you make your own homemade cream of chicken soup, then you would omit the cup of milk from the recipe that is mixed with the canned soup. Not understanding, I added the milk to the homemade version I made and ended up with a really runny dish! Oh well…..this is how I learn! You might want to give a heads up in your recipe that you should omit the cup of milk if using homemade soup. Thanks so much!
Teri, I had no idea about that either and I cook a lot and watch my share of cooking shows too. Thanks for the heads.
This also can be made in the crockpot!! I’ve made it MANY times!! I don’t use milk in it though!! You should TRY it!! It’s literally dump, let it go and voila its sooo GOOD
Michelle, you don’t use the milk at all? With either homemade or canned soup?
I’d leave out the milk, and make stuffing ahead with a little less water. I leave out the butter in stuffing. also, I use Campbells fiesta nacho cheese soup. It’s a tiny bit spicy, but I don’t like spicy food, and I love this. my family devours it.
When you make it in the crock pot do you pre cook the chicken?
Are we suppose to preseason the chicken?
I can’t wait to try this! I’m going to add broccoli and cauliflower.
The recipe I used called for 1/4 C milk. It’s in the oven as I write this.
So i’ll share after dinner if anyones interested.lol
I made this recipe last week and absolutely loved it. I followed your recipe for making cream of chicken soup first and used it instead of canned. Everything tastes wonderful, but came out much runnier than pictures above. I was wondering if this just a quirk during a first run or if I made some mistake in the directions when I substituted the soup. Is the homemade version meant to be condensed? So I still need to add the milk to it before pouring over the chicken? Thanks for the great recipe!
Just tried this recipe….HOLY CHEESE & CRACKERS! DELICIOUS! Came across the recipe on Pinterest and thought it looked yummy. Wow, one of the best casserole recipes I have found. And best of all it only took about 40 minutes to prep and cook. Love this one!❤
Just wondering If I can have this pre-prepared keep it in the fridge raider for an hour and a half and then cook it when I need it.
I had the same thought you did about pre-prepping it.I think if you pre-prep this and kept it in the fridge, I thinkthe stuffing would absorb too much liquid and become GUI possibly. It’s always worth a shot! My guess is if I did pre-prep it, I think I will do everything except sprinkle the stuffing mix on top.
I used cream of corn instead of the soup and it was the beSt will surel make again
I wish i had read your comment before cooking. The corn sounds delicious.
i always completely prep this the night before, it always turns out perfectly.
I THNK YOU COULD PREPARE EVERYTHING BUT LEAVE THE STUFFING OFF UNTILL YOU ARE READY TO BAKE…THEN SPRINKLE IT ON ..IVE MAKE A SIMILAR CASSEROLE..BUT IDF YOUR TIME CRUNCHED YOU AND ASLO MAKE THIS IN A CROCK POT..ON LOW FOR ALL DAY OR HIGH FOR QUICKER TIME…THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THE STUFFING DOESNT GET AS CRUNCHY BUT STILL NUMMY
Would I be able to freeze this? If so, what should I do? Thank you!
I was wondering as well…….can I freeze this dish?
Hi, I have not tried freezing this dish myself, but I think it would freeze just fine.
I would make it up until the baking point. Don’t bake. Wrap tightly in foil then freeze up to 3 months. When ready to cook, I would let it slowly thaw in the fridge for about 24 hours. Then bake as directed. Please let me know you if you try it! 🙂
I make this into freezer meala sall the time! Sorry for all caps, it won’t change 🙁
I also Bake from FRozen and use rotissori chicken, leave it covered because Keep in kind it’ll take longer to bake
Just made this with the included recipe of the homemade cream of chicken – we added broccoli to make it an all in one meal. Everyone loved it. Thanks for the simply delicious recipe.
I made this and had guests, everybody like the dish and will make it again. Thanks for. Printing an easy and DELISH meal.
if i need to doible this recipe, what size pan would i use?
If doubling, you’ll need to use two 9×13-inch baking dishes and just make one recipe per pan. 🙂
I like stuffing. If I doubled the amount of stuffing, would I double the amount of broth?
I made this tonight and it was very good. I used savory herb stove top, doubling and making it in advance with the water and butter before spooning it on top and baking it. (So I didn’t add the chicken broth.) There was enough gravy I could’ve made mashed potatoes to go with. I ate it with cranberry sauce from the deli and it was so good! It was a mini thanksgiving tonight! Thanks for the recipe.
Looks amazing!! I’m prepping now And hope it comes out as beautiful as your picture! I think I’ll add a bag of mixed veggies to give it that pot pie vibe. Fingers crossed.
I always add mixed veggies as well!
So yummy!
The picture shows mixed vegetables….not on recipe…is that picture for this recipe????
I don’t see any vegetables. I think you’re seeing the dried herbs in the stuffing.
There are vegies in the stuffing mix.
I personally was going to make veggies on the side. This can also be a perfect thanksgiving left over dish and use turkey instead of the chicken. Yummmm
Can you make this ahead of time in the morning – before baking and refrigerate to bake after getting home from work?
Thank you!
I haven’t tried making it in advance. The only thing I would worry about is the stuffing getting soggy. But maybe it would work. If you try it let me know how it turns out 🙂
What would be your recommendation if I wanted to add carrots or broccoli to this? I just would like to put in some sort of vegetable, but wondering if I would need to alter the recipe at all. Thanks!
I think you could easily add a cup or two of any cooked veggie you’d like. I think broccoli would be amazing in this!
I used canned chicken; I put a can of mixed veges on top of the chicken, and I put the soup on top of that. I have also used frozen vegetables. It was delicious. I don’t know if the broccoli would over cook or not.
This was a winner in my house. All three kids happily finished their plate, which is a rare occurrence in this house. For those who asked, if you use the homemade condensed soup recipe, you don’t need the milk or the broth mentioned in the casserole recipe.
I have been making a similar recipe for over thirty years. I have used cooked chicken or leftover Thanksgiving turkey. I have also used cream of celery soup. I layer my meat and stuffing. I top it with the soup. I love to use this recipe after Thanksgiving to use up the leftovers. I make too much stuffing, on purpose. HA! It can be prepped ahead of time and kept in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. I would add the soup after you remove it from the refrigerator. I have added in vegetables and have even added in some ham. I have mixed cream cheese in with the soup, too. Thanks for sharing this recipe. My family has loved it for years and it’s nice that others can enjoy it, too.
Emma I love this idea. I was thinking the same exact thing for thanksgiving leftovers. I also love the cream of celery idea as i don’t like create of chicken condensed soup but was willing to try her homemade soup. I don’t eat pork, but i know my family would love ham in it. I was also going to cook some veggies to have on the side.
Making this dish for the first time right now.cant wait to see how it turns out! Looks and smells YUMMY
This was so easy and good!
Can you use leftover chicken instead of raw chicken.
I’m trying it tonight w boiled chicken
I made this tonight. It was great! I used whole skinless thighs. Delicious!
One of my family favorites! Thanks for sharing.
Make this is my elderly mother and my family everyone loved it it is definitely a repeat
Great recipe! I added a steam pack of veggies to add a pot pie spin on it.
What a great recipe! I made your condensed soup to go along with this casserole. I am grateful I read the reviews before I made it because I left out the milk for this recipe because I had made my condensed soup. This was a complete success! The recipe is well written and very easy to follow. This one is a keeper. Thank you!
Really very good, layer over mashed potatoes!! Yum
I have been making a version of this for many many years
My receive is with whole chicken breasts,cover with a slice of Swiss cheese,pour the cream of chicken soup thinned out with wa little water,put stovetop on top and then drizzle on top with melted butter before cooking it.
It a fantastic major meal . Also freezes well if any is left..I always make extra and freeze in individual bags. Great when you don’t want to cook.
Enjoy.
This sounds good, ima have to try your way next time.
How long should I bake if I am using chicken already cooked?
I would bake it for about 25 minutes or until warmed through! 🙂
Made this last night. Very delicious. Used rotisserie chicken. 5 stars
Use sour cream instead of milk – you’ll thank me and also use about 1/2 cup… yum!
I’ve been meaning to make this for awhile and finally did tonight… my super picky husband couldn’t stop raving about how tasty it was! Thanks for the great, easy recipe!
I made this as well. I used 2 cans of Campbells Fiesta Nacho Cheese soup. it’s a little spicy, but not too hot, I promise. mine was also runny. I agree, make up stuffing first, and I’d use less water when I make stuffing. I’d also leave out the milk. Soup seems too thick, but it softens when heated. also, I have a 13 x 9 inch slow cooker. I just love it. Got it at WalMart, around $50. one hour on high, 4 or, 5 hours on low. you can change up this recipe.
put stuffing down 1st, then cooked or canned chicken, then one can fiesta Nacho cheese soup mixed with a cup or so of sour cream on top. bake 350 for 30 to 40 mins. this is a super fast meal to make. make it ahead and keep in frig til ready to cook. and my family devours it every time I make it.
I don’t believe the directions say to make these stuffing ahead of time I think you were supposed to put the dry stuffing on top and then for the chicken broth over that some of the stuffings soak up the liquid
I added an onion to the top before baking. It’s one of my favorites.
Second year I’m making this, although trying to reduce the sodium because I found it extremely salty, though delicious. Also, adding a cup of frozen peas this time. I use 2 packages of stuffing, increase the broth a little and split the recipe into two 8×8 pans, one to freeze
Awesome recipe! Has become a staple for us 🙂
I tried this tonight. Very good. Only thing I would change is only use 1 can of soup. I thought it was a little to soupy.
i made this, but i did not use the Soup, i used half cream cheese and sour cream with Chicken broth And chicken bouillon. ODDLY Enough, the second time i made this i got over conFident and did it from memory. Somehow I thought I was supposed to put in a cup of cheddar cheese. I was mistaken, but who knew, I aDded cheddar and muenster— it was delicious! That will be my adD moving forward one cup cheese!!
this was delicious!! I used loW soDIum canned soup, as I had Some on hand, and I threw in some green bEans to make it a one dish meal. I also took the foil off for the last 10 min to get a bit of browned, crisp to the stuffing. I’ve alrEady been Asked to make it again!!
Can i use homemade stuffing with this rather than the box mix?
Yes you can definitely use homemade stuffing instead of the box mix. I would use around 2 to 3 cups of homemade stuffing. 🙂
I decided to make this tonight after looking for something quick. I totally botched it! Not on purpose lol. I don’t keep chicken broth on hand, but use knor chicken bullion instead. I added a bit too much 🙂 I had the chicken cut I p and in the pan when I discovered that I didn’t have any cream of chicken soup….crap! Time to improvise! I used cream of mushroom instead. No milk…so I added a little more water. I mixed the soup and broth together and added the stuffing. Mixed it all together and poured it on top. It turned out really good!! Can’t wait to try it the other way lol 🙂
I added carrots and potatoes. so yummy
The recipe is UNCLEAR, is the chicken cooked or raw?
Sorry you feel it’s unclear. But the chicken is raw when you place it in the baking dish before cooking the casserole.
(When any of my recipes require already cooked chicken I state that in the recipe.)
Thank you for the clarification. I was confused also and had to scroll through all of the comments to be sure!
Quick and easy. My family likes it also. I use 2 boxes of stove top.
yes definitely use two boxes of stove TOP stuffing. I made the STUFFING per box directions before I mixed it all together. I mixed the two cans of soup with a half a can of MILK..MIXED till CREAMY. Mix the STUFFING, the raw chicken and the soup together then put it in the greased pan and bake. it won’t come out runny. I like it this way cuz it’s more of a hearty casserole.
Do i need to cook the chicken first?
Or can i put it in the pan raw to bake?
It goes in raw 🙂
This was a really easy recipe. I decided to add to it. First of all, I precooked my chicken, then I decided to add some pasta to it. In the bottom I put a layer of egg noodles, then the chicken, etc. I made a mistake that turned out awesome. when I grabbed my two cans of cream of chicken soup from my pantry, I opened the first and then realized, “oh shoot, this is cream of celery.”. I didn’t want to waste the soup so i decided to use one can of cream of celery and one can of cream of chicken. It was great!!! I’ll definitely be making this again. Thanks for posting the recipe and the picture you posted with it grabbed my attention, I knew I had to make it. I’m glad I did.
I plan on making this for dinner tonight but ive heard DiFfereNt things from others. Do i have to cook the chicken breast before i Put it in the dish?
In my recipe it states to use raw chicken. No need to cook the chicken first.
My mother made this and put swiss cheese slices on the chicken before covering with the cream of chicken. Oh so good.
I saUteed onions and ceLery snd added and also used steamed broccoli.. ialso added cheese last 15 minutes of baking. Also used chicken broth and canned cream if chicken Soup.. was wonderful and eVen better the second day.
Yum! I love the sound of your additions. I’ll have to try those next time!
So I made this recipe tonight and it was amazing. I only had one can of chicken so I added a can of mushroom. Still tasted amazing but my topping didn’t look like yours. My topping basically melted into the casserole. Any suggestions?
this was good. the taste was A little strong in the gravy with the two cans of condensed soup…i think i might add a little more water next time as well since i couldn’t quite get all the stuffing covered. a few changes i made: i used whole boneless skinless thighs and kept the cooking time the same – they were so juicy! i also added minced garlic and roughly chopped onion over the chicken after i seasoned it. all in all i will definitely make this again, thanks for the recipe!
I had to change up the recipe to one can cream of chicken soup and one cream if mushroom soup. I used vegetable broth instead of chicken. Sprinkled handful of cranberries for color. Excellent flavor and easy:)
I make this but use cream of mushroom soup and sour cream in place of milk. And no broth Been making this for my family for long time. I will have to try it this way. Love the recipes
I made this for dinner the other night. It will be one that i will make again. I would prefer more of the stuffing, so, The only thing I think I will try different for the next time is to use 2 boxes of the stuffing mix. Layer the chicken, then a box of the stuffing, then layer per the recipe.
Also made the French Onion Beef casserole for dinner tonight! It was a big hit! Thank you for all the wonderful receipes you post!
I like the sound of cranberries for color
Was super yummy. I will add some peas and other veggies to it next time and i think it will be perfect.
Made this for the first timE tonight and It was DELICIOUS!
This sounds delicious. I am busy during the day, so I put it in the crock pot so it will be ready after work. I used one can of cream of chicken and one can of cream of mushroom, because that’s all I had. I also didn’t have plain milk so I substituted butter Milk for the milk and since I didn’t have broth, I substituted boulon with heavy cream (instead of water). I may put it in the oven right before we’re ready to eat to try to get the stuffing a little brown, but if not, no one will know any different. I hope I didn’t mess it up with the butter milk and heavy cream …. we will see. Thank you for sharing the recipe!
Made this tonight and It got rave reviews from my boyfriend! I ended up juSt using 1 can of Soup, seasoned tHe chicKen wIth lots of extra spices, and Mixed the stuffing + broth toGeTher prior to putting it on top of The casserole. Great & easy recipe!
What a delicious, coMforting dish! We just polished the last bit off today and my husband was so pleased with it. Served with cranberry sauce and green beans – an early taste of Thanksgiving. 😀 Thank you very much for sharing such an easy, delicious dinner!
I added a layers of mashed potatoes before the chicken and my family devoured it all!
I add ripped up swiss cheese over the chicken pieces. It gives it a nice add in.
I make this almost every month. In
Between The soup and stuff i add frozen veggies like you would in a pot
Pie. OMG!!! Love it and heated up the next day with some butter on top
It is a pot pie. IMO.
This was delicious and easy. I used Costco cooked chicken and it was so good and yummy!
Can anyone tell me if they have frozen leftovers and how the casserole did after thawing and reheating? thanks!
this is now a staple dish in our house!!! so easy to make and its super tasty! i do add a can of mixed veggies on top of the chicken just to get in some veggies!
Great recipe for the winter. I added velvetta cheese over the chicken. Then, Iadded soup and stUFfing. Very good and quick to do. Kids will love it.
I find it too soupy so I add an extra box of stuffing and problem solved… next time I’m going to try some broccoli or cauliflower in it!
Mine turned out wetter than I expected. I uncovered it & put it under the broiler until it browned up a bit. My hubby loved it
This was delicious I seasoned with onion mushroom soup mix and chicken base for a depth and doubled the stuffing with a lil extra stock instead of broth.
Will definitely make again
ThIs dish is a hit for us. Will be Making it more often.
Delicious…We had this for dinner tonight. Loved that it had a nice creamy sauce.
I’ve made a similar recipe many times in the past but used chicken breasts (not cut up) and put swiss cheese on the chicken before topping it with the soup and stuffing. This recipe makes me want to fix it for dinner tonight.
I’ve made something similar to this for many years. I put Monterey jack cheese over the chicken then i put the soup mixed with part white wine and part chicken broth. Then put stuffing mix and pour a stick of melted butter over the stUffing and bake. Delicious!
Delicious!! I make this with a couple of tweaks. I use 1 can of cream of chicken and 1 can of cream of celery or cream of mushroom (i have also Used a 32oz jar Of chicken gravy) and I usually add a can OF drained green Beans.
Do you cooK thE chicken before you put it into the casSerole?
No, I put the chicken in raw. 🙂
Thank you so much for the recipe it was wonderful.
I seasoned with salt and white pepper, threw a small flat of sliced protabellas and a can of drained green beans over the chicken. did the rest as directed, spread some shredded cheddar cheese on for the 10 minute rest with the foil placed loose on it. came out great! Will definitely do this again!
DELICIOUS! The whole family was raving about it
This recipe is really good! First time making it I halved the recipe but used a whole box of stuffing mix and it turned out great. This time i’m using more chicken to follow the recipe, but i don’t have milk so i subbed chicken broth and 1/4 cup of sour cream. Yum!
This was Amazing. Delicious. The perfect quick comfort meal. I wish I could share a photo.
I am going to be trying this tonight but with a bag of peppridge Farm stuffing I will let you all know
Ive had this at a friends and was DELICIOUS. Some people in my family have dairy issues was wonDering if there was a dairy free ALTERNATIVE to the condensed milk
Hi Diane! For a dairy-free alternative you can use almond milk + a little sugar OR coconut milk + a little sugar. 🙂
There is so much you can do To this dish! I added a can of mixed veggies just To get my greens in 🙂 Great comfort dish, thanks for sharing!
I cannot figure out how to print it?
Hi Heather, there is a print button under the photo on the recipe card. 🙂
I made this dish the other night. I only had one can of cream of chicken soup, so I used that plus one can of cream of mushroom soup. It turned out wonderfully! My husband, who is not fond of casseroles, actually said it was delicious and hope i will make it again . Of course I will! It is super easy and delicious! Thank you for the recipe.
Made this for supper, it was delicious
I used 3lbs of chicken breast, salt, pepper and garlic & herb seasoning. One can of cream of chicken, one can of cream of mushroom and about 12oz of sour cream. Mixed the soup with 12oz of mixed vegetables. I used 12oz of seasoned stuffing in a 10 x 15 casserole dish. Cooked it for 50 minutes. My wife loved it!! She things I am the greatest cook on the planet!!
I have made this recipe at least a dozen times. It always comes out perfect! It is one of my fast and delicious dinners! Thank you for the recipe!!
I made this but used Sour cream INSTEAD of milk. I also used just one cup of chicken broth for the stuffing. I pre cooked the chicken in butter, garlic, sea salt and minced onion. I also added a can of corn to the mixture to make it a one bowl meal!!!!!
Just put in the oven. One thing I added was some frozen mixed veggies. After we have had it I will rate it.
I made this today and it’s absolutely delicious. I put mxed veggies and cheddar cheese in as well.
I use cream of broccoli or creAm of celery soup. I also put An extra box of stUffing on the bottom. I add some cheddar cheese and sour cream to the soups. Its delicious!
Love this recipe. I use it often. Have tried other recipes of yours and love them all. This is so easy and so good
I have made this a few times. Every time I add a vegie to it so it’s a one dish meal, it always comes out great!! I double the recipe bec my step boys are big boys lol! I use condensed soup if I only have one can then I add sour cream and it’s even better!!
I made this for supper yesterday and my family is still raving about it. I will definitely make this again.
Do i pre cook the cHicken?
No
I made this when I had left over fresh corn. I added to it just BEFORE I served it. It was very good BEFORE the corn was added, but I liked it even better with the corn!
I made this recipe this week and I used the stove top cornbread stuffing instead and it was delicious! My whole family love it! I’m Definitely going to make this Again! It was also one of the first recipes I’ve tried that actually turned out delicious, I don’t generally use recipes, I just wing it, and the food is always great but when I try new recipes they don’t really work out, so this has given me new hope for trying some other recipes! I highly recommend making mashed potatoes to eat with it, there’s extra sauce and it’s very flavorful so the potatoes balance it out! You could also make it with more chicken if you wanted to have extra leftovers! I used a baking dish that has a lid so it was still layered right for the next day. I covered with foil and reheated mine in the oven at 325 and it was like I made it fresh! I’m So glad I tried this one!
I got pretty picky kids. And they love it
I prefer using thighs because I just like dark meat better. I also used a whole can (14 oz) of chicken broth only because there was no sense in wasting 2 oz. This is a Delicious meal! And so easy to make! I would consider making this instead of traditional dressing for thanksgiving. Yeah, it’s that good!
Can you use Rotisserie chicken instead of uncooked? Do liquids or cook time change?
Hi Shelby, yes you can use pre-cooked chicken. You won’t need to bake it for as long. Still make it as directed and cover with foil, but I would only bake for 25 minutes (or until heated through). 🙂
First i want to say i donot have my pc in caps.
I do my chicken and stuffing crock pot
i put 2 cans of cream of chicken soup, 2 cans of cream of celery soup
mix add cut up chicken
i use 2 boxes stuffing i also saute onion and celery in butter (i use plant butter)
I add that to stuffing then i put the stuffing on top put lid on crock and let it cook on low over nite.
Easy peasy and delicious!
I always preseason my chicken. Instead of cream soups with milk I like to use creamy wild rice soup with no milk. Also will use cream of corn with milk. Can use any canned soup choice.
Want to know if i can boil the chicken breasts then shred it before putting it in stuffing and bake it?
yes you can use pre-cooked chicken. You won’t need to bake it for as long. Still make it as directed and cover with foil, but I would only bake for 25 minutes (or until heated through).
Absolutely delicious! My family of five ate the whole dang casserole in one sitting! So much for having leftovers!
Very easy recipe. I did sprinkle poultry seasoning over the chicken for added flavor. I think next time I might use 1/2 Cup milk with the canned soup to make the consistency more like a sauce. I will also use about 1/2 cup more chicken broth and add some chopped onions.
I make this but use cream of mushroom soup and sour cream in place of milk. And no broth Been making this for my family for long time. I will have to try it this way. Love the recipes
love the chicken and stuffing.
I must say this is a delicious recipe. I did do some tweaking I added Mozzarella cheese on top of the soup, but mixed one cream of chicken and one cream of mushroom soup. I also used pepperidge farm herb dressing because it’s what I had on hand. I just mixed the broth in the dressing a put melted butter on top. Simple and delicious! What more could you ask for!
I love this recipe! I make it all the time for my kiddos. for nights I don’t have an hour and my kids are starving I will use pre cooked rotisserie style chicken and it cuts the baking time in half!
super easy, super yummy!
Found your recipe a few years ago. My son asks for it. The only thing I do different is add celery and onions. Delicious!
I made this for dinner along with the homemade cream of chicken soup, it turned out great ,Thanks for the recipe, will make again everyone loved it.
Loved, loved, loved the recipe. I had already purchased chicken breast and cut them into chunks for fast and easy preparation!! Thank you.
first time making this and made this exactly to the recipe so i can get the true taste. Used low sodium broth and no additional salt as canned soups tend to be saltly. This was delicious! A hit in my house and will be on the regular rotation! Thank you!
Love this! I should’ve halved the recipe for the 2 of us, but my chicken breasts were so big I decided to make the 9×13 size, The only thing I changed was the addition of some sauteed celery & some chopped water chestnuts for a little crunch. yummy!!!!!
I’ve made this many times, and it has become one of my go-to recipes for meal prep. I’ve made minor modifications to the base recipe that took this from great to outstanding.
– Add 2tbsp salt-free poultry seasoning to the chicken
– Omit milk
– Add 6oz dried cranberries to the stuffing
I’ve also experimented with using other condensed cream soups when I have those on hand and adding a 12oz bag of frozen mixed veggies between the soup and stuffing layers, and it still came out great.
If you love chicken or turkey and dressing like I do but not the necessary time for a weekday dinner—you will enjoy this dish! It is super easy. I dumped a package of frozen mixed vegetables on top of the diced chicken before topping with the soup mixture and voila it healthified it up some. Removed the cover and added 10 minutes to crisp up the stuffing like mom did on Thanksgiving. Hubs said he wants it for his birthday.
My husband and I love this recipe, and I often make half the recipe for dinner for the two of us. It is quick and easy to make and can be very versatile by using different vegatables and adding cheese. One evening I was going to make this for dinner and did not have any stuffing mix in the pantry. As I was making half the recipe I found a 5 ounce bag of seasoned croutons and substitued that for the stuffing mix. *Please note, if you are making the full recipe, you will need two bags of seasoned croutons. At the end of baking time, i turned on the broiler for two minutes to brown the top.. we enjoyed a delicious meal on a cold winter’s night without going out to the grocery store for stuffing mix.
my boys ate the whole pan and asked if I made 2 pans of it. was a real hit at our house
Easy, classic recipe! I like to add some onions and celery to the stuffing. You can also add a layer of green beans over the chicken to add some veggies.
If you make the homemade soup do you still add the milk and broth from this recipe?
Yes, you still add the milk and broth. 🙂
DELISH!
Made as written, absolutely wonderful! Cannot wait for leftovers to bring to work for lunch!
I made this using the homemade chicken soup recipe! After I made the soup, I folded everything together into a large bowl so it was nice and mixed. So yummy!
A side note: I find the flavoring of stove top stuffing too much, so I substituted with a bag of pepperidge farm herb seasoned cubes.
excellent recipe!
Wonderful recipe! this is so easy yet so delicious. I add a layer of green beans to the dish.
Added a can of green beans to the soup and milk mixture. SO good!
I made the recipe this past week, and we loved it! Usually my husband turns his nose up at anything with chicken because we have it so much, but he had seconds on this one. I followed the recipe exactly. Reading some of the comments below gave me some alternatives for next time. Definitely will keep this one. Thanks for the recipe. Ann
What an easy yet delicious recipe. I use rotisserie chicken and add green beans. A complete meal!
