Chicken and Stuffing Bake is my recipe of the day with Sunday Funday. We get together  once  per week to post favorite recipes  on various topics. This week it is all about chicken recipes.

This  particular recipe for chicken and stuffing is  something my mom used to make for the family when I was a kid. She would take a whole  fryer chicken,  cut it into pieces and put it on top  of her own stuffing mix.

There are a few variations here, as I have come  to make my own  stuffing in my own style over the years. Plus I like to use chicken legs. Those are bot economical and a whole heck of a lot easier than cutting up a bird.

This is one pan easy except  for the extra pan  to brown the chicken legs to get them  some color.  Serve this with some cranberry sauce and a bowl of tossed salad and you’ll be all set for supper. I hope you enjoy.
