Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and cook the chicken breasts for 4-5 minutes per side, or until lightly browned but not fully cooked. Remove from skillet and set aside to cool slightly, then cut into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and milk until smooth. Stir in the cooked chicken pieces and set aside.
In a separate bowl, combine the dry stuffing mix with the chicken broth. Stir until evenly moistened and let sit for 2-3 minutes to absorb the liquid.
Spread the chicken and sauce mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
Layer the moistened stuffing mix over the chicken mixture, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the stuffing layer.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the sauce is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
