Ingredients

2 cups cooked chicken breast, diced

1 small onion, diced

2 celery stalks, chopped

1 cup frozen peas (optional)

1 ½ cups chicken broth

1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup

½ cup milk

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon dried sage

½ teaspoon black pepper

½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

½ teaspoon dried parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Prepare the ingredients by combining the diced chicken, chopped onion, celery, and frozen peas in a large mixing bowl.
Make the dressing mixture by mixing the bread cubes with melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, dried sage, salt, and black pepper in a separate bowl.
Prepare the creamy sauce by whisking together the chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and milk until smooth.
Assemble the casserole by pouring the chicken mixture into the greased baking dish and topping it with the seasoned bread cubes. Drizzle any remaining butter over the top.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
Let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with dried parsley and enjoy!
