Ingredients
Stuffing
- 6 ounces stuffing mix (Stove Top Cornbread or any flavor)
- 1 1/2 cups chicken stock or broth
- 2 tablespoons butter
Casserole Mixture
- 10.5 ounces Cream of Mushroom Soup
- 1 cup milk
- 8 ounces sour cream (or substitute Greek yogurt)
- 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 2 cups chopped broccoli florets
- 1 1/2 cups shredded Colby/Jack cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Prepare stuffing: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring the chicken stock and butter to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in the stuffing mix until well coated. Let it sit for at least 5 minutes to absorb the liquid and soften.
- Mix casserole base: In a large bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, milk, sour cream, and poultry seasoning until smooth and combined.
- Add main ingredients: Fold in the shredded rotisserie chicken, chopped broccoli florets, and shredded Colby/Jack cheese into the soup mixture. Stir until evenly blended.
- Assemble casserole: Transfer the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Then, spread the prepared stuffing mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
- Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the stuffing is golden brown and the casserole is heated through.
Notes
- Using rotisserie chicken saves time and adds flavorful, tender chicken to the dish.
- Broccoli florets can be lightly steamed or blanched beforehand if you prefer softer vegetables.
- Substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a lighter alternative without sacrificing creaminess.
- The casserole can be prepared a day ahead; refrigerate assembled but unbaked and bake when ready.
- Any brand or flavor of stuffing mix can be used according to taste preferences.
