Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Sauce

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of onion soup
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Stuffing Topping

  • 2 cups prepared stuffing mix
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the chicken and stuffing.
  2. Season Chicken: Season the boneless, skinless chicken breasts evenly with salt and pepper to enhance flavor.
  3. Sauté Onions: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onions and cook until they are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes, to bring out their sweetness.
  4. Prepare Sauce Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of onion soup, sour cream, and chicken broth thoroughly to create a creamy sauce.
  5. Arrange Chicken: Place the seasoned chicken breasts in a greased baking dish in a single layer.
  6. Add Sauce and Onions: Pour the prepared soup mixture evenly over the chicken breasts and then spread the sautéed onions on top.
  7. Prepare Stuffing Topping: In a bowl, mix the prepared stuffing mix with the melted butter until well combined to ensure a rich, crispy topping.
  8. Add Stuffing and Bake: Sprinkle the buttered stuffing evenly over the top of the chicken and sauce. Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the stuffing is golden brown and crispy.
  9. Rest and Serve: Allow the dish to rest for 5 minutes after baking to let the flavors settle. Serve warm and enjoy your creamy, hearty chicken bake.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add herbs such as thyme or rosemary to the cream sauce.
  • Make sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before serving for safety.
  • Use prepared stuffing mix of your choice, such as cornbread or herb-flavored stuffing, to customize the dish.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven for best texture.
