Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Generously spray a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil, then add chicken and diced onion. Cook over medium-high heat until chicken is cooked through and begins to brown, stirring frequently to keep onions from burning. Season to taste with salt and pepper
Transfer chicken and onions to prepared casserole dish. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine stuffing mix, half (1 c.) of the shredded cheese, canned tomatoes, half (β c.) of the balsamic vinaigrette, minced garlic, and Italian seasoning. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
Spread the stuffing mixture evenly over the chicken into the prepared baking dish.
Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese.
Bake casserole in preheated oven, uncovered, for 35 minutes until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbly.
Remove from oven, cover with foil, and allow the dish to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped basil leaves and a drizzle of the remaining balsamic vinaigrette.
