Old Fashioned Chicken and Dressing

 

Old Fashioned Chicken and Dressing at Miz Helen's Country Cottage
I love Old Fashioned Chicken and Dressing. There is a certain time of the year when that is one of the recipes that I crave. My Grandmother would make this recipe for a Sunday dinner and you could smell it cooking all over the house. This is a very simple recipe and can be made ahead of time or frozen after baking. It is a delicious family recipe that says, warm, cozy and lots of love.

How To Make Old Fashioned Chicken and Dressing

I like to use my Roasted Chicken Recipe, however you can use a rotisserie chicken in the recipe as an option.

I like to use my own Old Fashioned Buttermilk Cornbread Recipe, however you may use a cornbread mix as an option.

  4. When you cook ahead then freeze, when should you take it out of freezer. And how do you reheat? TIA

    1. To re-heat after freezing: Allow the the casserole to defrost in the refrigerator overnight. Drizzle 1/2 to 1 cup of chicken broth on top of the dressing to ensure it does not dry out in reheating. Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 to 30 minutes until warmed through. If it is getting to brown, just cover with a foil tent. Thanks so much for stopping by and I sure hope you enjoy the recipe. Happy cooking!
