🥘 Chicken Stuffing Casserole Ingredients

Chicken stuffing casserole is made even easier when you use dried stuffing mix! It’s super flavorful and you don’t have to worry about cutting up your own bread.

Stuffing Mix – 6 ounces of stuffing mix. This is about 1 ¾ cups of dried stuffing mix! I love stuffing in this recipe because it’s full of the delicious flavor we all love! I prefer using a cubed stuffing mix for this, but you can also use traditional.Water – 1¼ cups of water. This should be heated to boiling so it moistens the stuffing mix. You can also use chicken broth or stock here for extra flavor.Butter (optional) – 2 tablespoons of butter. This is optional but recommended if you’d like a little extra flavor in your stuffing. It should be melted if you decide to add it!Chicken Breast – 2 cups of chicken breasts. You can use chicken thighs here if you prefer! They should be cooked and shredded or diced - feel free to use some rotisserie chicken!Sour Cream – ½ cup of sour cream. Sour cream makes the casserole so creamy and delicious!Cream of Chicken Soup – One 10.5-ounce can of cream of chicken soup. This easy sauce base will be added to the casserole to make it creamy and add loads of chicken flavor.Mixed Vegetables – 3 cups of mixed veggies. These should be thawed to make sure the casserole doesn’t get watered down!Salt & Pepper – ½ teaspoon of both salt and pepper. You can just add this to taste—this is the seasoning base for the casserole.Garlic Powder – ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder. This will give extra flavor to the casserole!Onion Powder – ¼ teaspoon of onion powder. Onion powder also gives extra flavor to the casserole! I like to use onion powder, but you can also use granulated onion.

💭 Angela’s Tips & Recipe Notes

Use a rotisserie chicken to make this meal even easier! Picking the meat from a rotisserie chicken will not only make this meal extremely easy to throw together - but it’ll also make sure the chicken is perfectly tender and flavorful! You can also use leftover chicken or turkey for the casserole.You can use any canned condensed cream soup for this casserole! Cream of chicken is one of my favorites, but some cream of mushroom, cream of onion, or even cream of bacon will work well!Set the vegetables in the fridge overnight to thaw quickly or use the sink! Run the bag of vegetables under running warm water to thaw them out quickly. Be sure to remove any excess water before adding to the casserole to make sure it doesn’t water down the dish.

🥡 Storing & Reheating

If you happen to have leftovers of this amazing casserole, either transfer them to an airtight container or cover them with a layer of plastic cling film or aluminum foil. When stored properly, the casserole will last for about 3 to 4 days in the fridge!

Freezing

Casseroles tend to freeze well - but casseroles with dairy, not so much! Your best bet is to mix the separate parts: the chicken and vegetables and then the stuffing mixture.

When you’re ready to make the dish, let the other ingredients thaw in your fridge overnight, and then make the cream sauce. Proceed with the rest of the baking above and you’ll have a casserole ready in half the time!

Reheating Leftover Chicken Casserole

In my opinion, the best way to reheat this yummy casserole is in the oven! This way, the stuffing can get crispy again on top and the creamy chicken is evenly reheated.

You’ll want to preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and then put the casserole in the oven for about 20 to 30 minutes, or until it’s fully reheated! If the casserole looks like it’s over-browning or drying out, put on a sheet of aluminum foil to help protect the dish.

Should I Use Cubed Stuffing Or Traditional For The Casserole? I prefer to use cubed stuffing for this recipe because it holds up well and has a bit more structure than traditional stuffing!

Condensed cream of chicken soup is a thick, flavorful condensed soup typically made from chicken stock and cream! It’s a great way to make an easy sauce and it’s super versatile!
