Provided by Julie Clark

Categories     Main Dish

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 1/2 cups cooked chicken ((about 1 1/2 pounds of chicken before cooking))
10.5 ounces cream of mushroom soup
1 cup sour cream (8 ounces)
1 box stuffing mix (6 ounces)
1 1/2 cups chicken stock (12 ounces)
1/4 cup unsalted butter (2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350º Fahrenheit. Grease a 9x9" baking pan with cooking spray. (You can use a 9x13" baking pan if you'd like.)
  • Sprinkle the cooked chicken on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the cream of mushroom soup and the sour cream. Pour and spread this mixture over the chicken.
  • Prepare the box stuffing mix as per the instructions on the back of the box using the 1 1/2 cups chicken stock and 1/4 cup butter. We switch out the hot water for chicken stock for added flavor.
  • Spoon the prepared stuffing over the sour cream mixture.
  • Cover the casserole with foil and bake for 30 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 10 minutes. (If you used a 9x13" baking pan, it may heat through more quickly since it won't be as thick in the pan.)
  • Serve immediately.

From Grandma Smith. From this recipe, I make one large casserole and one 8-inch round casserole. I think the recipe could be halved easily, but when making for myself, I freeze one casserole for later use. Freezes well.

ONE-DISH CHICKEN AND STUFFING BAKE



One-Dish Chicken and Stuffing Bake image

This easy version of Grandma's specialty features seasoned stuffing and chicken baked in a creamy mushroom sauce.

Provided by Campbell's Kitchen

Categories     Trusted Brands: Recipes and Tips     Campbell's Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ¼ cups boiling water
4 tablespoons butter or margarine
4 cups Pepperidge Farm® Herb Seasoned Stuffing
6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
Paprika
1 (10.75 ounce) can Campbell's® Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup or Campbell's® Condensed 98% Fat Free Cream of Mushroom Soup
⅓ cup milk
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Mix water and butter. Add stuffing. Mix lightly.
  • Spoon stuffing along center of 3-quart shallow baking dish. Arrange chicken on each side of stuffing and sprinkle with paprika.
  • Mix soup, milk and parsley. Pour over chicken. Cover.
  • Bake at 400 degrees F for 30 minutes or until done.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables in your stuffing for added flavor and texture. Some good options include celery, onion, carrots, mushrooms, and apples.
  • If you're using bread cubes in your stuffing, make sure they're dry before adding them to the mixture. This will help prevent the stuffing from becoming soggy.
  • Don't overstuff the chicken. You want the stuffing to be cooked through, but not so packed that it's dry.
  • Roast the chicken at a high temperature for the first 30 minutes to help brown the skin and seal in the juices. Then, reduce the temperature to finish cooking the chicken through.
  • Let the chicken rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Grandma's Chicken Stuffing Bake is a classic comfort food dish that's perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner. The combination of juicy chicken, flavorful stuffing, and crispy skin is sure to please everyone at the table. With a few simple tips, you can make this dish at home and enjoy it with your family and friends.
