Delicious homemade Chicken and Stuffing Casserole ! recipe, easy to prepare and full of flavor!
Servings 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb. boneless/skinless chicken breasts, pounded to even thickness and cut into 1″ cubes, or 1 lb. shredded cooked chicken
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 2 Tablespoons flour
- 1 cup warm chicken broth
- 1/2 cup warm milk
- 8 oz. Sour Cream
- 1-2 cups thawed frozen vegetables of choice
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese. I use cheddar but Swiss would be amazing if my husband liked it!
- 2 cups stale bread cubes
- 2 teaspoons desired herbs (such as parsley, sage and thyme)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and prepare a casserole dish with cooking spray.
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add in garlic and cook until fragrant. Stir in flour and cook until slightly golden brown. Slowly whisk in milk and 1/2 cup broth. Simmer until it reaches a light boil and begins to thicken a bit. Stir in sour cream, chicken, vegetables and cheese. Add mixture to prepared casserole dish.
- In a separate bowl, combine bread cubes, remaining broth (should be 1/2 cup) and seasonings as desired. Place on top of casserole mixture.
- Bake uncovered for 30-45 minutes until chicken is cooked through (if using raw chicken), or until heated through and bubbling if using cooked chicken.
