If you need an easy dinner that feels like comfort food but doesn’t require a lot of work, this Chicken & Zucchini Casserole is such a good one!

Rotisserie chicken keeps the prep simple, zucchini adds some veggies, and a box of Stove Top stuffing gives you that savory, buttery flavor without having to make anything from scratch. Everything gets mixed together with cream of chicken soup and sour cream, then topped with more buttery stuffing and baked until golden brown.

Finding Easy Tip

Rotisserie chicken is one of my favorite shortcuts for easy dinners. You get all the flavor of cooked chicken without having to prep and cook the chicken first.

You can even pull the meat from your rotisserie chicken when you get home from the grocery store and keep it ready in the refrigerator. That makes this casserole even faster to throw together at dinnertime.

What to Serve With It

This casserole really can be a complete meal on its own since you have chicken, zucchini, and stuffing all in one dish. If you want to add something alongside it, keep it easy!

A simple green salad, roasted green beans, or fresh fruit would all be great. And honestly, on a busy night, I’d just scoop this onto a plate and call dinner DONE.

Can I Make It Ahead?

Yes! Assemble the casserole earlier in the day, cover it, and refrigerate until you’re ready to bake.

If you’re baking it straight from the refrigerator, it may need a few extra minutes in the oven. Just make sure the center is hot before serving.

Easy Comfort Food for Busy Nights

This Chicken & Zucchini Casserole is exactly what Finding Easy is all about—taking simple ingredients and turning them into something your family will actually be excited to eat.
