Ingredients
  

  • 4 - 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (depending on their size - enough to loosely fill a 9x13" pan)
  • 6 slices cheese
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 c. milk
  • 1 - 1 1/4 c. stovetop chicken stuffing
  • 1/4 c. butter (4 Tbsp.)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°.
  • Place the chicken breasts into the bottom of a lightly greased 9x13" baking dish.
    4 - 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Put a slice of cheese on top of each chicken breast.
    6 slices cheese
  • Whisk together the cream soup and milk and pour it over the top of the chicken.
    1 can cream of chicken soup, 1/2 c. milk
  • Sprinkle the dry stuffing cubes over the top of the dish.
    1 - 1 1/4 c. stovetop chicken stuffing
  • Cut the butter into thin slices and scatter them over the top of the stuffing.
    1/4 c. butter (4 Tbsp.)
  • Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 - 1 1/4 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 160 - 165°.
  • Remove from the oven and let it rest several minutes before serving with your favorite side dish.
  • Cool, refrigerate, and reheat any leftovers.

Notes

If preferred, you can top the chicken with shredded cheese instead of slices. Use any kind of cheese you like. We always used American cheese.
You can substitute the cream of chicken soup with cream of mushroom or celery. And you can use any brand or flavor of stuffing mix that you prefer.
You can add more seasonings on top if desired. I like to sprinkle smoked paprika over the top before adding the stuffing.
My chicken breasts were huge, so I used 4 and cut them in half.
*Note: Pounding chicken breasts or soaking them in buttermilk for at least an hour prior to baking helps to create a more tender piece of chicken.
*Nutrition is approximate.
