Cheesy Chicken and Stuffing Casserole Recipe

I love to buy chicken in bulk and then spend one Sunday afternoon cooking it up to use in various recipes throughout the week. On weeks that I do this...one of the recipes that I like to make is this Cheesy Chicken & Stuffing Casserole that my great auntie gave to me about 15 years ago.

The recipe is really easy to prepare and will feed a family of 4 easily. If you have a larger family...you can double the recipe ingredients and use a 4 quart baking dish instead of a 2 quart one that you will need when making it.

Cheesy Chicken and Stuffing Casserole Recipe

4 cooked chicken breasts, bones removed and cut into cubes
1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 1/4 cups chicken broth

In a large 2 quart casserole dish, combine all of the above ingredients. Do not need water...the soup should thin down with the addition of the chicken broth.

Topping:

1 cup chicken broth
1 stick butter
10 oz. bag stuffing mix
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

Combine together the chicken broth, butter and stuffing mix. Sprinkle stuffing mixture on top of the ingredients in the casserole dish. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top of the stuffing.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place baking dish in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until done. Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
