Eating And Storage Tips

I absolutely loved doing this recipe and it would be perfect around Christmas with leftover stuffing, vegetables and either chicken or of course turkey!

When I made it I put a whole tin of chicken soup in but I’ve reduced the amount down for the recipe as it was just a little bit too liquidy which is why it bubbled up and over the stuffing mixture.

In this recipe I use carrots and broccoli but you could absolutely use something like carrots and sprouts or even mushrooms and chestnuts as well.

This would work okay as leftovers if you were to make extra and then reheat it again in the oven or even in the airfryer if you use a suitable dish for it. I wouldn’t go for the microwave as it might make the stuffing a bit soggy and dense. But only do this if you cooked the chicken from fresh as you don’t want food poisoning from reheating it multiple times, especially over the festive period!

If you want to make this in advance you can absolutely make the chicken mixture up and left it cool completely before adding the stuffing to it and putting it, well covered, in the freezer. You can keep it in the freezer for up to a month and you can then cook it from frozen as well on 180c for 30 minutes before turning the heat to 200c for another 30 minutes.

Great for using up Christmas leftovers or simply making as a simple ingredient winter warmer. This chicken and stuff bake really hits the spot. – Start cooking some red onion and garlic into a pan with some heated olive oil – Add in some chopped up chicken thigh fillets but you could use leftover chicken or precooked chicken and add it later – Add in a little flour and give it a mix before adding in a tin of cream of chicken soup and mixing again – Add some oregano, rosemary, salt and pepper too – Add in some cubes of carrot and broccoli florets. You could use frozen though. – Place it into an oven friendly dish and top with some stuffing – Place in the oven for about 25 minutes at 200c. #food #cooking #cookingvideo #cookwithme #cookingwithme #simplerecipe #quickrecipe #quickfood #comfortfood #cookingathome #fypfood #foodiesoftiktok #homecook #homecooking #simplefood #foodiesofinstagram #mealswithme #recipesoftiktok #recipe #easyrecipe #quickrecipes #chicken #christmasrecipe #leftovers #festiverecipe #foodtok #christmas
