Ingredients

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cooked and cut into bite-sized pieces
1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 pound broccoli florets, cooked
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup dry stuffing mix

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish.
If not already cooked, simmer the chicken breasts in water until no longer pink, about 15 minutes, then cool slightly and cut into pieces.
In a bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup and mayonnaise until smooth and creamy.
Spread the cooked chicken evenly in the prepared casserole dish.
Layer the cooked broccoli over the chicken.
Pour the soup mixture evenly over the broccoli layer.
Sprinkle shredded Cheddar cheese on top.
Finish by evenly sprinkling the dry stuffing mix over the casserole.
Bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes, until the casserole is hot, bubbly, and the stuffing topping is lightly golden.
