Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 box Stove Top stuffing mix (chicken flavor)
• 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of chicken soup
• 0.5 cups sour cream
• 1.25 cups chicken broth
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoons dried parsley
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 1 as needed nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

Butterfly or cut the chicken breasts into smaller pieces to ensure even cooking, then season both sides with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the unsalted butter. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly browned (they don't need to be fully cooked). Remove from the heat and set aside.

Step 4

Prepare the Stove Top stuffing mix according to the package instructions, substituting chicken broth for water. Fluff the stuffing with a fork once cooked.

Step 5

In a large bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and parsley. Mix well until smooth.

Step 6

Spread half of the soup mixture evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 7

Layer the seared chicken breasts on top of the soup mixture in the pan.

Step 8

Spread the remaining half of the soup mixture over the chicken, ensuring full coverage.

Step 9

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the top of the casserole.

Step 10

Spoon the prepared Stove Top stuffing evenly over the cheese layer, covering the entire dish.

Step 11

Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and drizzle it over the stuffing layer for added flavor and crispiness.

Step 12

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Step 13

Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the stuffing is golden brown.

Step 14

Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
