Chicken-Broccoli-Stuffing Bake

About a year ago, I went to visit my sister Stephanie and her family. She was preparing this dish for a neighbor of hers who just had a baby! I had to get the recipe from her right then! It looked and smelled incredible! Since that time, I have made it for our family numerous times and I love how easy it is to prepare in advance. Perfect comfort meal!!! Enjoy!
