Chicken and Dressing Casserole
Here’s your grocery shopping list:
- 4 pounds chicken thighs - with bones.
- 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup - 10 3/4 ounces
- 1 can condensed cream of celery soup - 10 3/4 ounces
- milk
- 1 package cornbread stuffing mix, seasoned, 6 ounce
- seasoning - I have this awesome Kansas City Style Chicken Seasoning, I use, however if not available, I use whatever I have on hand.
Remove skin from chicken and place in a large saucepan. Cover with water - salt if desired. (Instead of salt, I usually add a teaspoon of chicken seasoning). Bring to boil; boil for about 30 - 40 minutes. Chicken needs to be cooked through. Remove chicken from broth - reserving the broth. When cool enough to handle, remove chicken from the bone (I wear latex gloves - much easier). Place chicken in bottom of a 9x13 baking dish.
In bowl mix together cream of chicken soup, cream of celery soup, and one can full of milk. (If I have extra or left over vegetables on hand, they get added in as well). Pour mixture over chicken. In same bowl, combine stuffing and 1 1/2 cups of the reserved broth. Spoon over casserole.
Bake in 350 degree oven for 45 minutes.
