How to Make Chicken and Stuffing Casserole:

    1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F. This casserole is layered, so you’ll need to prepare each part.

    2. Prepare the Stuffing: In a small pot, boil water and add butter. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the stuffing. Cover the pot for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

    3. Sauté the Vegetables: In a skillet, heat olive oil and sauté the chopped onion and bell peppers.

    4. Layer the Casserole:

• First layer: Spread shredded rotisserie chicken across the bottom of a 9×9-inch casserole dish.

• Second layer: Add the sautéed onion, bell peppers, and uncooked broccoli florets on top of the chicken.

• Third layer: Mix cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, and sour cream. Pour this mixture evenly over the vegetables.

• Final layer: Top everything with the prepared stuffing.

    5. Bake: Bake for 45 minutes or until the stuffing is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling.

Freezing Chicken and Stuffing Casserole:

Yes, this casserole freezes well. Assemble the layers, then wrap tightly with plastic wrap and foil, and freeze for up to 4 months. You can also freeze the baked version—just let it cool to room temperature, wrap it, and freeze.

What to Serve with Chicken and Stuffing Casserole:

A mixed greens salad with balsamic vinaigrette pairs perfectly with this dish. For dessert, try apple pie with vanilla ice cream or bananas foster. The casserole is hearty on its own, so feel free to choose your favorite side dishes.

Cooking Tips:
