🛒 Ingredients
- 4 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded
- 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
- 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of celery soup (or use another can of cream of chicken)
- ¾ cup sour cream
- ½ cup milk
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 (6 oz) box stuffing mix (like Stove Top)
- 1 ½ cups chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- Optional: 1 cup frozen peas and carrots (thawed) or green beans
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Preheat oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
2. Prepare the filling
In a large bowl, combine the shredded rotisserie chicken, cream of chicken soup, cream of celery soup, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix until well combined. Stir in optional vegetables if using.
3. Assemble the casserole
Spread the chicken mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
4. Prepare the stuffing topping
In a separate bowl, combine the dry stuffing mix with chicken broth and melted butter. Let it sit for a couple of minutes to absorb the liquid, then fluff with a fork.
5. Top and bake
Spoon the stuffing mixture evenly over the chicken mixture. Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes, or until bubbling and the top is golden brown.
6. Cool slightly and serve
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
