Good recipe! Made as written with a couple of adjustments based on what I had on hand. I substituted cornbread stuffing mix for the unseasoned stuffing cubes and used rubbed sage in place of the thyme. Next time I think I'll incorporate the chicken into the stuffing instead of layering it on top. We loved this with cranberry sauce! Nice comfort meal!

This was great! The whole family loved it! I did not add all the water to the soup, maybe less than 1/4 cup. I was afraid it was going to be too wet as stated in other reviews. It was fine. I will definitely make again! I used a leftover rotisserie chicken. Thank you for sharing!

I made this yesterday to take to a party and it was a huge hit. I followed the recipe except I did add the chicken broth a little at a time to make sure it did not get to moist. I used almost 2 cups. It was perfect. I added some sliced almonds as a topping. This recipe is delicious.Volunteer Field Editor

This is a great make-ahead comfort food meal. I never add the chicken broth to the eggs and seasonings. Instead, I pour a little bit at a time into the stuffing mixture to make sure it doesn't get too wet. How much stock you need depends on the moisture in your stuffing cubes, since there are ultra dry varieties and simple cubed bread varieties. Personally, I just tear up a loaf of cheap bread.

This dish had great flavor. It was however, very very mushy, and I left out the last one third cup water. Baked for an hour and a half to dry it out some and still was very mushy.

Mine turned out soggy. Maybe I didn't bake it long enough?
