Ingredients
- 1 lb ground chicken or rotisserie/shredded chicken
- ½ cup onion diced
- ¾ cup butter melted
- 6 oz package Herb Stuffing Mix
- 3 cups zucchini diced
- 10 oz can Cream of Celery soup
- ½ cup sour cream

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease a casserole dish.
- In a skillet, cook the ground chicken and diced onion over medium-high heat until fully cooked. Drain any excess liquid and season with pepper.
- In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter with the dry stuffing mix. Set aside 1/2 cup of this mixture for the topping.
- To the remaining stuffing mixture, add the diced zucchini, cream of celery soup, and sour cream. Stir everything together until well combined.
- Spread the zucchini and chicken mixture evenly into the prepared casserole dish.
- Sprinkle the reserved stuffing mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
- Bake for approximately 25 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through.
Notes
- For added vegetables, consider adding shredded carrots to the main mixture. A sprinkle of shredded parmesan cheese or sharp white cheddar on top before baking is also a delicious addition. The stuffing mix typically provides enough salt, so additional seasoning may not be necessary.
Notes
Ground chicken can be substituted with rotisserie chicken or leftover shredded chicken. Cream of Celery soup can be swapped for other cream soups. Shredded carrots can be added for extra vegetables. Parmesan or sharp white cheddar cheese can be added on top. The stuffing mix usually contains enough salt.
