How to Make the Recipe

Now, let’s get cooking! Follow these simple steps to create your Stuffing Casserole:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
2. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onions, celery, and garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until fragrant and softened.
3. In a large bowl, combine sour cream, cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, and shredded rotisserie chicken. Stir in sautéed veggies, salt, and pepper.
4. Place the stuffing mix in a separate bowl. Pour the creamy chicken mixture over the stuffing and toss until the stuffing is evenly coated.
5. Transfer the stuffing and chicken mixture to the greased baking dish. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top.
6. Bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown on top.
7. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme if desired, then serve warm.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some helpful suggestions to ensure your casserole turns out perfectly:

• Feel free to customize the veggies! Adding bell peppers or mushrooms can enhance the flavor.
• If you want a little kick, consider adding some red pepper flakes to the creamy mixture.
• For a heartier meal, serve this casserole alongside a fresh salad or some roasted vegetables.
• Don’t skip the resting time after baking; it helps the casserole set up nicely.

How to Serve

This Baked Casserole is best served warm, straight from the oven. I love to garnish it with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for a pop of color and flavor. Pair it with a side of steamed green beans or a crisp garden salad for a complete meal. It’s also a fantastic option for potlucks or family gatherings!

Make Ahead and Storage

If you’re planning ahead, you can prepare this casserole a day in advance. Just assemble it in the baking dish, cover it tightly with foil, and refrigerate. When you’re ready to bake, simply pop it in the oven, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
