We have found that, as is, this dish can be a little dry sometimes. So, we mix the stuffing as it says, but instead of sprinkling italian seasoning on the chicken, we pour a small can of italian diced tomatoes over the chicken and then proceed as the recipe says. (Warning, this does make it soupier, if you don't like soupy casseroles, keep the recipe as is) Oh, and more cheese is ALWAYS yummy!

We love this casserole. I agree with Brittany though, it does need a little more moisure. I usually double the tomatoes that I add to the stuffing mix.
