Chicken Green Bean Stuffing Casserole is a creamy, cheesy comfort food the whole family will love!
The weather keeps fluctuating between hot and cold here. It was just in the high 60s and low 70s, but today was rainy and cold.
So I was feeling like some good comfort food to deal with the weather. This Chicken Green Bean Stuffing Casserole is a favorite at my house.
My kids always love to eat this Chicken Green Bean Stuffing Casserole. They inevitably clear their plates and ask for more, which makes this mama happy!
Should Chicken Green Bean Stuffing Casserole be made with raw or cooked chicken?
This recipe is made with raw chicken. It will be fully cooked after baking. However, if it makes you uncomfortable to use raw chicken, you are welcome to use cooked chicken.
Tips for making Chicken Green Bean Stuffing Casserole:
This casserole turns out better with Stove Top Stuffing than with Mrs. Cubbison’s. I haven’t tried making it with any other stuffing mixes. If you would like to make your own stuffing, this knock off Stove Top Stuffing is a great recipe.
Also, it’s important to note that due to the fact that this is made with sour cream instead of a can of creamed soup, the texture of the sauce will be a bit grainier. If you’d rather make it with a creamed soup, substitute a can for the sour cream. Or make your own (quick & easy) creamed soup as a substitution.
We like it just fine the way it is, but I understand some people are very used to the texture creamed soups contribute to a casserole.
I make this casserole in my favorite 9×13 pan, and if we’re taking it to a potluck or family dinner, I love using a casserole carrier to keep it toasty hot!

Can you use non-fat Greek yogurt instead of sour cream? Less calories, more protein.

I'm guessing it would turn out more watery, without the fat of sour cream, but I've never tried it so I don't know for certain. If you do try, we'd love to hear how it turned out.

Do you use plain stuffing mix or cornbread stuffing mix?

@Freddie, I find that it turns out the best with Stovetop Stuffing chicken or turkey mix. However, I've made it with other brands, and even homemade stuffing, and it's still really good.

Good recipe with lots of potential for variations. I used cream of potato soup with sour cream and milk. My stuffing called for onion and celery. I didn't have celery, so I substituted fresh spinach and I added celery salt. YUMMY comfort food. I could see adding broccolini in place of spinach as well. I followed the recipe otherwise using the raw chicken and it came out very tender. I cooked it at a lower temperature for 30 min and then turned it up to 400 for another 20 min. as I was afraid of it drying out, but still wanted the stuffing to brown. It was so delicious.
