Garlic chicken and scalloped potato casserole topped with garlic stuffing and tomatoes

(scroll down to the bottom to see the plain recipe)

I really need to come up with a shorter name for this but it's the result of an experiment.  I wanted to make my chicken stuffing bake but I also wanted scalloped potatoes.  I also didn't feel like using two pans to make dinner so I combined the two.

I did cheat and use box scalloped potatoes but I have a feeling my recipe from scratch would work too.  I'll update this recipe after I've had a chance to test it out.

Garlic chicken and scalloped potato casserole topped with garlic stuffing and tomatoes

1 Box Low Sodium Chicken Stuffing
1 Box Scalloped Potatoes (updated recipe with these from scratch to come later)
1/2 Cup Chicken Stock
1 Can Italian Diced Tomatoes, undrained
6 Cloves of Garlic, minced (yes, I put a lot of garlic in my dishes)
3 Chicken Breasts, cut into bite sized pieces
1 TBSP Italian Seasonings
1 Cup Sharp Cheddar Cheese
1 and 3/4 Cups Boiling Water
1/2 Cup Milk
1 and 1/2 TBSP Butter/Margarine
3 Green Onions, chopped fine
Black Pepper and Salt to taste
2 TBSP Powered Garlic, separated

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Place chicken in the bottom of a greased 2.5 to 3 qt casserole dish.
Sprinkle the top with black pepper, salt, 1 TBSP powered Garlic, and the minced green onions.
Set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix the boiling water and butter until the butter has melted.  Add milk, 1 TBSP powered garlic, and sauce mix from the box.  Whisk until smooth.  Add the potatoes and let sit for a few minutes while you prep the next part.
In another bowl, mix stuffing, tomatoes, chicken stock, Italian seasonings, and minced garlic until blended well without being mushy.
Pour the scalloped potato mixture over the chicken in the casserole dish.
Sprinkle cheese over top evenly.
Spread the stuffing mixture on top and seal the sides so you can no longer see any ingredients under it.
Bake for 40 minutes.
Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

I sprinkled some left over cheese on top when I served it.  A fairly simple one pan dish that had my husband looking for seconds!
