Notes
- Make ahead of time. Casseroles are a great make-ahead meal and this chicken and dressing casserole is no different. Assemble the casserole the day before, cover it, and keep it in the fridge. Due to the extra chill from the fridge, you will need to add about 10 minutes to the baking time.
- FREEZE. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and again with foil. Label and freeze for 3-4 months. Thaw and bake, adding extra time to account for the chill of the freezer.
- STORE leftover chicken stuffing bake in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for 3-4 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.

This chicken and stuffing mix is so delicious I make it once per week for my husband and I. Since its just the two of us we eat it as left overs for a couple of days. It doesn’t dry out and taste just as good as the day I made it. For those saying the stuffing was hard to spread add a little chicken broth to it before spreading on top of the chicken mixture.
This turned out awful and I followed it to a T. It’s nothing but greasy liquid.
I mix the stuffing in the chicken soup mixture before I put into the oven.
Top with stuffing? How? I made the stuffing exactly as directed by this recipe and it definitely would not spread on top. It was a big lump that I fluffed up with a fork and you cannot spread it over an unstable bottom made of soup. Total waste of time and money.
I’m sorry to hear you didn’t have a good experience with the recipe. Thanks for the feedback and for giving the recipe a try.
I added a small amount of chicken broth to the stuffing to make it easier to spread. I just sprinkle small tablespoons of the stuffing all over the top till its completely covered, its not that hard.
Perhaps “dollop” would be more accurate than “spread” but the idea is to cover the chicken mixture with prepared stuffing.
I fixed this recipe and loved it. My husband did also. I even shared recipe with a friend and she liked it also
Love this! It kind of reminds me of chicken pot pie but with stuffing instead! So yummy!
