Ingredients
  

  • Chicken breasts boneless, skinless, trimmed of fat used whole or halved if large to ensure even cooking (approx 1.5-2 lbs total). Pounding them to even thickness helps cooking time matches the recipe without drying out edges before center cooks thoroughly; standard size breasts work best here as thin cutlets might overcook in the hour bake time. Thicker breasts stay juicier during the long bake. Can also be cut into large tenders if preferred for faster cooking but whole breasts are traditional for this style of bake to keep meat moist under the stuffing layer. Ensure they are patted dry before placing in the baking dish for better adhesion of the sauce layer. Fresh is preferred over frozen for texture and timing accuracy but thawed frozen breasts work fine too provided they are fully defrosted before baking starts so water release doesn't make sauce runny or soggy stuffing later on during cooking process inside the oven heat cycle. Use high quality poultry for best flavor results overall in this simple dish where meat quality shines through simple ingredients used alongside it in the casserole dish preparation steps listed below

  • 4 pieces Chicken Breasts Boneless, skinless (about 1.5 - 2 lbs total)
  • 2 cans Cream of Chicken Soup 10.5 oz each (undiluted)
  • 1 packet Onion Soup Mix Dry mix (approx. 1 oz)
  • 1 box Stove Top Stuffing Mix 6 oz box (Chicken or Savory Herb flavor)
  • 1 1/2 cups Water Hot, for preparing the stuffing
  • 1/4 cup Butter Cut into pieces, for preparing the stuffing

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl or saucepan, prepare the Stove Top stuffing according to the package directions using the hot water and butter. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
  • Arrange the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a single layer at the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.
  • Spoon the cream of chicken soup evenly over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully covered.
  • Sprinkle the dry onion soup mix evenly over the layer of cream of chicken soup.
  • Top the casserole with the prepared stuffing mixture, spreading it out to cover the chicken and sauce.
  • Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes. (Check at 45 minutes if chicken breasts are thin).
  • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the stuffing is golden brown and crispy and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the sauce to set slightly.
