I stole this recipe for Soup-erb Chicken Casserole from a cookbook called Campbell’s Kitchen Recipe Collection. Chicken is cooked in a skillet with seasoning and set aside. Then a mixture of canned soups, cheese, milk and seasoning is cooked in the same skillet. Broccoli is added to the sauce. Cooked pasta and the chicken are placed in a casserole dish with the sauce poured on top. Stuffing mix and butter is mixed together and sprinkled on top. This Soup-erb Chicken Casserole is finished by baking in the oven.
Did you know? Eight out of every ten cans of soup sold in the United States are Campbell’s® brand, most common are Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup, Cream of Mushroom Soup and Tomato Soup.² (see more trivia in the Trivia tab)
Cook 1 pound chopped chicken in a skillet with seasoning of your choice.
Brown the chicken (it will finish cooking in the oven) and set aside.
In the skillet the chicken was cooked in, add 10 ¾ oz can Campbell’s condensed Cream of Broccoli Soup, 10 ¾ oz can Campbell’s condensed Cream of Potato Soup, 1 cup milk, ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese, ¼ tsp garlic powder and ⅛ tsp black pepper.
Gently stir to combine everything, breaking up the condensed soup.
In a casserole dish place 1 lb cooked pasta and 10 oz package frozen chopped broccoli that has been thawed. Add in cooked chicken and pour sauce over the top. Bake for 20 minutes at 400 F. Stir.
Mix ½ cup crushed seasoned stuffing mix, 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese and 2 tbsp melted butter in a small bowl.
Sprinkle over the chicken mixture. Bake for 5 minutes more or until hot.
Serve warm.

Recipe Notes
I wanted this to be more saucy, so I added a can of cream of potato soup. You can also use a second can of cream of broccoli or a can of cream of chicken soup. Frozen broccoli can be used instead of the frozen peas and carrots. Also you can use any short pasta you prefer such as penne. Cook the chicken in a skillet with some seasoning, then remove the chicken to a plate. The soups, milk, mozzarella cheese, garlic powder and black pepper can be added to the skillet you cooked the chicken in and stir to scrap up any cooked chicken pieces and seasoning left in the bottom of the skillet. Then I transfer the sauce mixture to the baking dish and continue with the recipe.
