CHICKEN AND CORN BREAD

4 servings

 

1 can (10 3/4 oz) condensed cream of chicken or celery soup

3/4 cup milk

1 package (10 oz) frozen mixed vegetables, thawed and drained

1 medium onion, finely chopped (½ cup)

½ tsp ground sage or poultry seasoning

2 cooked chicken breasts from Baked Oregano Chicken, cut up (2 cups)

1 ½ cups corn bread stuffing mix

1/8 tsp pepper

Paprika, if desired

 

Heat oven to 400°. Spray 3-quart casserole with cooking spray.  Heat soup and milk to boiling in 3-quart sauce pan over high heat, stirring frequently. Stir in mixed vegetables, onion and sage. Heat to boiling, stirring frequently; remove from heat.  Stir in chicken and stuffing mix. Spoon into casserole. Sprinkle with pepper and paprika. Bake uncovered about 15 minutes or until hot in center.  This comfy casserole is a wonderful reminder of an old-fashioned chicken dinner, without all the work!  Try serving with a side of cranberry sauce spiked with a little orange juice and grated orange peel.
