Serving: This dish is hearty enough to be a stand-alone meal, or it can be paired with a variety of sides such as steamed rice, grilled vegetables, or a fresh salad.
Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until the chicken is heated through.
Variants:
Cheddar and Bacon Stuffing: For extra cheesiness, mix in some crumbled bacon into the cream cheese filling, adding even more flavor and texture.
