How to Make Chicken Stuffing Casserole in an Oven
Aunt Lou here.
When I was younger, I used to think casseroles were so complicated and hard. This amazingly delicious casserole proves how completely wrong younger me was about casseroles! It can be thrown together in less than 10 minutes. Then your oven does the rest of the work!
For this recipe, I used Cream of Chicken Soup because that is what I had on hand. When Cris made Crock Pot Chicken Stuffing Casserole, she used Cream of Celery. Both turned out wonderfully, so you can choose whichever you think will work better for you and your loved ones.
This recipe is comfort in a casserole dish. The flavors of all the ingredients meld together to give you phenomenal taste that is a delight for your taste buds. Everyone devoured this casserole when I made it. I am positive it will become one of your favorite must-have recipes. With it being simple and delicious, it is a win win recipe!
When making any recipe with meat, we highly recommend using a meat thermometer. (I have one similar to this that I love.) Also, make sure you are using the meat thermometer correctly. You want the tip of the thermometer to be in the middle of your meat at the thickest. Since this recipe is made with chicken tenders, you will want to check the temperature of your thickest chicken tenders in the middle of the casserole dish. That will ensure that all of your chicken tenders are cooked to a safe internal temperature.

Mandie says
This is a great comfort dish. The sauce is creamy and chicken is plump. It is a bit salty, but nothing horrible. I used low sodium chicken broth.
Aunt Lou says
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! If you want to reduce the salt a little, you could use our cream soup substitute recipe (https://www.recipesthatcrock.com/cream-soup-substitute-recipes/) and make it with low sodium broth and salt to your liking. Hope this helps!

Ginny says
Was very good had it tonight for dinner
Aunt Lou says
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
julies says
Loved this recipe! Next time, I’ll double the stuffing on top as it was our favorite part. I finally get why people like casseroles so much. It was so easy and quick and full of veggies.
Aunt Lou says
I love the stuffing too! I like your idea of doubling the stuffing! If you give it a try, let me know how it goes!

Brenda says
Lovely recipe , I fried a sweet red pepper diced with I finely chopped onion& 2 cloves of finely garlic finely chopped in sm.amt butter . I added this to top of soup so good !
Aunt Lou says
I love that you made it your own! That sounds delicious!
JOAN says
I make this and add a bag of broccoli and it turns out very yummy.
Aunt Lou says
Great idea! It sounds yummy!

Reana Parker says
This turn out perfect I have picky eaters I added the milk into my cans of cream of chicken I will make this again
Aunt Lou says
We have picky eaters at my home too (myself included lol). I’m so glad you and your loved ones enjoyed it!
Andrea says
Love this recipe! So simple and looks so tasty! Can’t wait to make it. Thank you!
Aunt Lou says
I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
Jazz says
Is there a reason mine turned out tasting so overwhelmingly salty? Not the chicken but the rest of it. I couldn’t even eat the stuffing part that I was looking forward to,
Aunt Lou says
We did not find it overly salty, but understand everyone’s tastes are different. You might try using low sodium versions of the ingredients next time. I did a quick search and found lower sodium versions of stuffing, cream of chicken soup and broth that could be used. I hope that helps!
Robin says
LOVE this recipe. Was huge hit at Church meal & is so super easy! Thanks!
Aunt Lou says
Robin,
I’m so glad to hear this was enjoyed by you and your church. Thanks for taking the time to let us know. It makes our day when we hear our readers enjoy a recipe!

roxy says
i have to watch my husbands salt intake. i use all low sodium products and i strain the dry stuffing to separate the seasoning and the stuffing. then i use less seasoning.
Laurie says
I accidentally put the chicken on top of the stuffing and then the soup. Is it going to come out ok?
Aunt Lou says
I haven’t made it that way, so I am not sure if it would make the stuffing too moist or not. How did it turn out?
Ashley says
Wondering if you can freeze this dish? Also, if making individual portions, how would cooking tome vary? Im preparing meals for father n law so he can just take out of the freezer and cook!
Aunt Lou says
I haven’t tried freezing this dish. I think it might work. I would freeze in individual portions after cooking and reheat in the oven instead of cooking individual portions from raw. I haven’t tried reheating this specific dish in the oven, but in general, I put my oven on 350 degrees Fahrenheit and check around 10-15 minutes with a meat thermometer and cook additional time as needed. Hope this helps! If you give it a try, let me know how it goes!
Anna says
I used tonys creole seasoning instead of poultry seasoning on sliced chicken breasts. Doubled up on the stuffing (used Pepperidge farms herb seasoned) and soup. Saw a comment about green beans, that sounded delicious. Had some leftover, so I just mixed them on the plate. OMG! PHENOMENAL! Will definately be using this again! Thank you!
Aunt Lou says
Your adjustments to the recipe sound delicious! I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for taking the time to let us know. We love hearing when readers love our recipes!
Barbara Campbell says
I thought I may have missed s step when the preparing this dish. The directions said pour soup o et chicken.
The end result was undiluted cream of chicken soup with chicken and crunchy stuffing mix.
Not awful but underwhelming. Maybe I misunderstood the directions. I reread twice 🤷
One star 🙁
Aunt Lou says
I’m sorry you did not enjoy this recipe! Did you do step 2 where you mix together your broth and stuffing mix? The stuffing should not have been crunchy after absorbing the chicken broth. The cream of chicken soup should have cooked up with the cooking juices from the chicken to create the sauce, for lack of a better term, in the casserole. We realize that every recipe isn’t going to be everyone’s cup of tea, but do hope you can find one you love in our over 1500 recipes!
Trina Drakulich says
First time making this. I used 2 cans of canned chicken and added half a can of cream if celery to the cream of chicken soup. It was delicious and came out perfect!! Needless to say, there was none left! 😋
Aunt Lou says
Great job making this recipe your own! I’m so glad you enjoyed it so much! Thank you for taking the time to let us know. It really makes our day!
Debbie R says
Can you use alternative chicken pieces, instead of Chicken Tenderloins? Isn’t that just chicken strips? I’m thinking slicing boneless breasts, or thighs?
Thanks
Aunt Lou says
Absolutely! You will want to slice the meat into strips so you have a similar cooking time. Make sure you watch it closely the first time you make it to adjust the cooking time as needed. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
Kim says

KAren says
Love this recipe! So easy and a definate crowd pleaser. I didnt have a can of cream of chicken soup so I used turkey gravy. It was delicious but looking forward to trying it with cream of chicken.
Aunt Lou says
Sounds like a yummy substitution to me! Great job figuring out how to use what you had on hand!
Kim Brown says
I have made this recipe several times and my family really enjoys it.. It’s so easy to make and always tastes delicious.
Aunt Lou says
Wonderful Kim! I am so glad to hear it! It makes my day to hear that a reader enjoys a recipe I’ve posted. Thank you for taking the time to let me know.
kiersten says
i want to try this!
can you add green beans?
how would i?
thank you !
Aunt Lou says
Hi Kiersten!
I haven’t tried adding green beans to this recipe, but think it could work. If I tried it, I would drain a can of green beans and mix in with the stuffing after it has absorbed the broth, but before you put it in the crock pot. If you give it a try, let me know how it goes!

Hoosier mom says
Hi! So happy to find this recipe. I was having a chicken and stuffing craving last week, looked for ideas, found your recipe and everyone loved it! I had the rest of the carton of chicken broth to use so I made another pan just now. Thank you so much for posting such an easy delicious recipe!
Aunt Lou says
Yay! I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe! Thank you for taking the time to let us know. It really makes our day hearing a reader likes a recipe we posted.
Janet Race says
Great recipe. I tweaked the recipe by cooking onions, celery, and sausage then added the mixture to the stuffing, seasoned with thyme and poultry seasoning. Also seasoned the chicken with pepper along with poultry seasoning. Came out delicious!
Aunt Lou says
I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe and made it your own Janet! Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a great idea and kind words. We greatly appreciate it when our readers speak life into us. Thank you!
Vicki says
I cooked for over hour and half and chicken still not done. I will cook chicken next time first.
Aunt Lou says
I’m so sorry the timing was different for you Vicki. It sounds like your oven cooks very differently from mine. This is why we always say, “All ovens cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own oven and time adjusted as needed.” Hope this helps.
Leigh says
Oven chicken and stuffing. It doesn’t say if you should cover or not??
Aunt Lou says
Hi Leigh!
You do not cover it. If you need to cover it, I will put that in the steps. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
