Whip up this special dish with boneless chicken breasts, canned soup and stuffing. “This entree tastes like you fussed, but it’s really so simple,” writes LaDonna Reed from Ponca City, Oklahoma. “It’s also easy to upsize for company.”

1-1/2 cups stuffing mix
1/2 cup chicken broth, warmed

2 tablespoons white wine or additional chicken broth
1 garlic clove, minced

Directions

Sprinkle chicken with pepper; top with cheese. Place in a 1-1/2-qt. baking dish coated with cooking spray. In a small bowl, combine stuffing mix and broth; let stand for 3 minutes. Spoon around chicken.
Combine the soup, wine or additional broth and garlic; spread over chicken. Cover and bake at 350° for 25 minutes. Uncover; bake 5-10 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 170°.

This was really good & easy to make. Glad I doubled the recipe. My husband had seconds. Did want to mention I used Pepperidge Farm cornbread stuffing because that is what I had. I also sprinkled a little garlic powder on chicken along with the black pepper. I will definitely be making this dish again.

Just made this dish for the first time, substituted the cream of chicken for cream of potato, and my husband and I thought it was fabulous! Might try a stronger cheese next time.

Was very easy to make. Both my daughter and husband loved it. Substituted provolone cheese for mozzarella since it was what I had on hand.
