Dolly’s Chicken and Stuffing Casserole
Ingredients:
4 cups cooked, shredded chicken (about 3 large breasts)
1 box (6 oz) stuffing mix (e.g., Stove Top)
1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons butter (optional, for extra richness)
Chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. In a large bowl, mix the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, and sour cream until smooth and evenly combined.
3. Add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir well to evenly distribute the seasoning.
4. Spread the chicken mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish using a spatula.
5. In a medium bowl, mix the dry stuffing with melted butter (if using). Toss until evenly coated.
6. Gradually add chicken broth to the stuffing, stirring between additions. The texture should be moist but not soggy.
7. Spread the stuffing evenly over the chicken layer, covering it completely without pressing it down.
8. Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes, until the stuffing is golden and the edges are bubbling.
9. Let the casserole rest for 5–10 minutes before serving.
10. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
