Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 3 cups rotisserie chicken, chopped
- 2 (10.5 oz) cans cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 2 cups frozen broccoli
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Stuffing Topping
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 (6 oz) box stuffing mix (like Stove Top)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly mist a 9×13 inch or three-quart baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Combine Chicken Mixture: In the prepared baking dish, combine the chopped rotisserie chicken, cream of chicken soups, chicken broth, frozen broccoli, dried thyme, onion powder, and pepper. Mix everything thoroughly and spread the mixture evenly across the dish.
- Prepare Stuffing: In a small saucepan, bring 1 1/2 cups of water and 1/4 cup of butter to a simmer according to the stuffing box instructions. Stir in the stuffing mix until combined.
- Let Stuffing Set: Remove the saucepan from heat and let the stuffing sit for about five minutes, allowing it to absorb the liquid and become fluffy.
- Top and Bake: Spread the prepared stuffing evenly over the chicken mixture in the baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the stuffing is lightly golden and the filling is hot and bubbly.
Notes
- You can substitute the frozen broccoli with fresh broccoli, just lightly steam it beforehand.
- For extra flavor, add some shredded cheese on top of the stuffing before baking.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated thoroughly before serving.
- Use low-sodium soups and broth if you want to reduce the salt content.
