- Spread the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Layer the prepared stuffing over the top, spreading evenly.
- Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 10–15 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.

Notes
- Use rotisserie chicken for extra flavor and a time-saver.
