Why I Love This Recipe

This recipe came from my mom, who always made it after Thanksgiving to use up leftover turkey. One night, for dinner, she swapped in rotisserie chicken instead of the leftover turkey, and the rest is history - it instantly became a family favorite.

The creamy, savory filling combined with the crispy stuffing topping makes this casserole pure comfort food. Now, I make it for my family all the time, and there are never any leftovers!

My Expert Tips

  • Use Freshly Shredded Chicken: The rotisserie chicken adds great flavor and makes this recipe extra easy. However, if you end up using homemade chicken, season it well before adding.
  • Make It Extra Cheesy: Sprinkle shredded cheddar or Parmesan cheese over the stuffing for a cheesy crust.
  • Customize the Veggies: Swap the peas and corn for green beans, carrots, or mushrooms to suit your taste.
  • Let It Rest Before Serving: Allowing the casserole to sit for 5-10 minutes after baking helps it set and makes serving easier.
  • Double the Recipe for Leftovers: This dish freezes and reheats beautifully, so make extra for easy meals throughout the week!
