This Chicken Stuffing Casserole is a hearty and comforting dish combining savory stuffing, tender chicken, creamy soup, and mixed vegetables. Perfect for a family dinner, it’s easy to prepare and bakes into a flavorful, satisfying one-pan meal.

Ingredients

Stuffing

  • 6 ounces stuffing mix or 3 to 4 cups homemade stuffing
  • 1 ¼ cups hot water

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked chopped chicken, diced
  • ⅓ cup sour cream
  • 10.5 ounces condensed cream of chicken soup or homemade condensed soup
  • 3 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Stuffing: In a large mixing bowl, combine the stuffing mix with 1 ¼ cups of hot water. Stir well to moisten the stuffing thoroughly. Set aside to absorb the water while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
  2. Mix the Casserole Filling: In another bowl, mix the cooked diced chicken, thawed mixed vegetables, condensed cream of chicken soup, and sour cream until well combined, creating a creamy and flavorful filling base.
  3. Combine Stuffing and Filling: Gently fold the prepared stuffing into the chicken and vegetable mixture, ensuring the stuffing is evenly distributed without overmixing to maintain texture.
  4. Transfer to Baking Dish: Spread the casserole mixture evenly into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish to ensure even cooking and easy serving.
  5. Bake the Casserole: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the casserole uncovered for 30 to 35 minutes or until the top is golden brown, the mixture is bubbly, and heated through.
  6. Let Cool and Serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 to 10 minutes. This resting time helps to set the casserole, making it easier to serve.

Notes

  • You can substitute homemade stuffing for the stuffing mix for a fresher flavor.
  • Frozen mixed vegetables should be thawed and drained to prevent excess moisture in the casserole.
  • This casserole can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated before baking.
  • For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free stuffing mix and condensed soup alternatives.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated thoroughly before serving.
