Description

Leftover chicken and easy ingredients like canned soup, stuffing mix, and frozen peas make this shredded chicken casserole a snap to put together.

Ingredients

3/4 cup frozen peas
1 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed cream of celery soup
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons chopped onion
1 3/4 cups dry bread stuffing mix (such as Pepperidge Farm®)
1/2 cup salted butter, melted

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2 Fill a medium saucepan with 3 cups water and bring to a boil. Add peas and boil, stirring gently, until cooked, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and transfer peas to a large bowl.
3 Add chicken, condensed soup, milk, and onion to the peas; mix to combine.
4 Combine stuffing mix and melted butter in a separate bowl. Transfer 3/4 of the stuffing mixture to a 2-quart casserole. Pour chicken mixture over top, then top with remaining stuffing mixture.
5 Cover and bake in the preheated oven until heated through, about 20 minutes.
