Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1.5 cups chicken broth
- 10.5 ounces cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 ounces stuffing mix
- 0.5 cup water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season them with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When hot, add the chicken pieces and cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 3-4 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender. Remove the broccoli and set aside.
In the skillet, combine the chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and water. Stir until the mixture is smooth and begins to simmer.
Stir in the stuffing mix and gently toss to coat it in the liquid. Flatten the stuffing into an even layer in the skillet.
Return the chicken and broccoli to the skillet, spreading them evenly over the stuffing layer.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top. Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to low.
Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and everything is heated through.
Serve hot, garnished with additional cheese or fresh parsley if desired.
