  • Total Time: 1 hour
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Chicken

  • 2 pounds chicken tenderloins
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Sauce

  • 10.5 ounce can cream of celery soup
  • 10.5 ounce can cream of chicken soup
  • ¼ cup milk

Stuffing and Broth

  • 6 ounce box Stove Top chicken stuffing mix
  • 1 ½ cups chicken broth

Garnish

  • Fresh or dried parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray an 11×7-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking and set it aside for assembly.
  2. Prepare Chicken: Cut the 2 pounds of chicken tenderloins into bite-sized pieces and place them evenly into the prepared baking dish. Season with ½ teaspoon kosher salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper, tossing gently to coat all pieces.
  3. Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the 10.5 ounce cans of cream of celery soup and cream of chicken soup along with ¼ cup of milk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Assemble the Casserole: Pour the creamy soup mixture evenly over the chicken pieces, smoothing the surface so all the chicken is covered.
  5. Add Stuffing Mix: Evenly sprinkle the 6-ounce box of Stove Top chicken stuffing mix on top of the sauced chicken, distributing it to cover the surface.
  6. Moisten the Stuffing: Pour 1 ½ cups of chicken broth over the stuffing mix, making sure all the stuffing is moistened for perfect texture after baking.
  7. Bake Covered: Cover the casserole dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes. Cooking times may vary depending on your oven.
  8. Bake Uncovered: Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes to allow the stuffing topping to lightly brown and crisp.
  9. Check for Doneness and Serve: Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption. Garnish with fresh or dried parsley if desired. When serving, scoop some of the flavorful gravy from the bottom of the dish and drizzle it over each serving for extra moisture and taste.

Notes

  • The chicken broth helps moisten the stuffing and adds flavor—feel free to use low-sodium broth for a healthier option.
  • Oven temperatures vary; use a meat thermometer to confirm chicken is fully cooked at 165°F.
  • Fresh parsley adds a pop of color and fresh flavor but is optional.
  • This casserole reheats well and makes great leftovers.
