Time 50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cubed
1 teaspoon salt
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
½ cup water
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 (6 ounce) box chicken-flavored dry bread stuffing mix
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Toss the cubed chicken with the salt in a large bowl. Place the chicken in a layer into the bottom of the baking dish. Stir together tomatoes, water, garlic, and stuffing mix in a large bowl; set aside to soften. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the chicken, then sprinkle with the Italian seasoning. Spread the softened stuffing mixture on top.
  • Bake uncovered until the chicken cubes have turned white and are no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes.
