1 can cream of chicken soup
1 packet onion soup mix
1 box Stove Top stuffing (prepared according to package instructions)
Aluminum foil

Directions:

Prepare the Oven and Baking Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Take a baking dish and set it aside.
Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the baking dish. You can use fresh or thawed chicken.

Prepare the Stuffing: Prepare the Stove Top stuffing according to the package instructions. Once it’s ready, spread the stuffing evenly over the chicken and soup mixture.
Cover and Bake: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to keep the moisture in. Place it in the oven and bake for 1 hour. If your chicken breasts are thinner, you may want to check them after 45 minutes.
Crisp the Stuffing: After the baking time, remove the foil and bake uncovered for another 15 minutes. This will help the stuffing get a little crispy on top.
