One of my favorite holiday meals is a good dressing side recipe. This chicken and dressing recipe can be used with turkey, but when a turkey is the main staple at the table, I like to change things up with a different bird.

  • Three pkg. Mexican cornbread mix

  • One large onion, chopped

  • One tsp oregano
  • 2 tbsp butter

Mix all three packages of cornbread mix as directed and bake in a large iron skillet. Allow to cool and then crumble into a large mixing bowl. Add white bread pieces and mix with cornbread.

Saute onion, celery, and bell pepper with butter over medium heat in a skillet. Stir in teaspoon pepper, salt, and oregano. Cook until vegetables are tender.

Recipe for Easy Chicken and Dressing

  1. Add vegetable mixture in cornbread and add in cream of chicken soup.

  2. Stir in 1/4 cup Chicken stock (and keep adding in small increments of chicken stock) until dressing is moist to your liking.

  3. Allow mixture to sit for a few minutes to see how much the dressing soaks up the broth and add more if needed.

  4. Once the stuffing is moist to your liking, add in the cooked and cubed chicken.

  5. Heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Pour the cornbread mixture into the desired baking dish and then bake the stuffing for 15 minutes or until lightly browned on top.

FAQs and Substitutions

This southern cornbread dressing can have several different substitutions.

If you want to serve with turkey, substitute turkey for the chicken breast and substitute the Chicken Stock for broth or for Turkey Broth.

You can also substitute chicken thighs or Rotisserie chicken for the chicken breast. You can also add in a teaspoon poultry seasoning or kosher salt for additional flavor.
