Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine your cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, broth, sour cream, and seasonings. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  2. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Pour the chicken filling into the dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
  3. Evenly sprinkle the stuffing mix over the chicken filling, pressing down gently to secure it in place.
  4. Melt a few tablespoons of butter and drizzle over the stuffing, if using.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes until bubbling and golden brown.

  7. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving to help the layers set.
