Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

  • 12 lbs Chicken Breasts, boneless, skinless, diced
  • 1 can Cream of Chicken Soup (10.5 oz)
  • 1/3 cup Sour Cream
  • 16 oz Frozen Mixed Vegetables
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste
  • 45 Garlic Cloves, minced

Stuffing

  • 1 box Stove Top Stuffing (chicken flavored)
  • Cooking spray for the baking pan

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Spray a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking and preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the diced chicken breasts, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, frozen mixed vegetables, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until everything is well incorporated.
  3. Layer Chicken Mixture: Spread the chicken and vegetable mixture evenly onto the bottom of the prepared baking pan, creating a uniform layer.
  4. Prepare Stuffing: Follow the instructions on the Stove Top stuffing box to prepare the stuffing mix. Usually, this involves adding boiling water and stirring to combine, letting it sit to absorb the liquid.
  5. Add Stuffing Topping: Evenly spread the prepared stuffing over the chicken mixture in the baking pan, ensuring a consistent coverage.
  6. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the stuffing is golden and crispy on top.
  7. Serve: Remove from oven, let cool for a few minutes, then serve the casserole warm for a delicious, comforting meal.

Notes

  • You can swap frozen mixed vegetables with fresh or canned vegetables of your choice.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding herbs such as thyme or parsley to the chicken mixture.
  • If you prefer a crispier stuffing topping, you can broil the casserole for 2-3 minutes at the end, watching closely to prevent burning.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated within 2-3 days.
  • Make sure chicken is fully cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before serving.
