Instructions
Step 1: Prep and Layer
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease an oblong baking pan.
- Spread the 1 large cooked and boned chicken evenly across the bottom of the prepared pan.
- In a small bowl, dilute the 2 cans cream of chicken soup with 6 tablespoons chicken broth. Spread this mixture evenly over the chicken layer.
Step 2: Stuffing and Assembly
- In a large bowl, mix together the 4 cups Pepperidge Farm herb seasoned stuffing, 2 1/4 cups chicken broth, and 1 stick melted butter until the stuffing is evenly moistened.
- Spread the stuffing mixture in an even layer over the soup layer.
- Pour the remaining 1 cup chicken broth evenly over the entire mixture in the pan to ensure moisture during baking.
Step 3: Bake
- Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and bake at 350°F for 45 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake uncovered for another 15 minutes, or until the stuffing top is golden brown, crisp, and the casserole is bubbling hot around the edges.
💡 Make-Ahead & Storage: Assemble the casserole ahead of time, cover tightly, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking. Add 5 to 10 minutes to the covered baking time if baking straight from the refrigerator.
