Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
Prepare the stuffing mix according to the package directions, using the melted butter and chicken broth in place of water. Set the prepared stuffing aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cream of chicken soup, sour cream, salt, pepper, and dried thyme. Stir until well blended.
Add the cooked and shredded chicken to the soup mixture and stir to coat the chicken evenly.
In a medium skillet, sauté the diced onion and chopped celery over medium heat until softened, about 4-5 minutes. Stir the sautéed vegetables into the chicken and soup mixture.
Spread the chicken mixture evenly into the prepared casserole dish.
Layer the prepared stuffing mix evenly over the top of the chicken mixture, pressing it down gently to cover the entire surface.
Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly around the edges.
Allow the casserole to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
