Description
Chicken Zucchini Casserole is a creamy, comforting bake that combines tender chicken, garden-fresh zucchini, buttery stuffing, and savory cream sauce. Perfect for busy weeknights or cozy family dinners, it’s hearty, satisfying, and surprisingly easy to make.
Ingredients
6 oz (170g) boxed stuffing mix
½ cup (115g) butter, melted
4–5 cups (600–750g) zucchini, diced
3 cooked boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
½ cup (60g) shredded mozzarella (optional)
1 can (10½ oz / 300g) cream of chicken soup
½ onion (75g), diced
½ cup (120g) sour cream
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, combine stuffing mix with melted butter. Reserve ½ cup for topping.
Add zucchini, chicken, mozzarella (if using), cream of chicken soup, onion, and sour cream. Stir well.
Pour mixture into a greased 9×13-inch (23×33 cm) baking dish and spread evenly.
Sprinkle reserved stuffing mixture over the top.
Bake uncovered for 40–50 minutes, until bubbly and golden on top.
Notes
Dice zucchini evenly to ensure consistent texture.
Mozzarella is optional but adds melty richness.
Add garlic powder or Italian seasoning for an extra flavor boost.
Can be made with yellow squash instead of zucchini.
Great for meal prep—flavors improve overnight.
