Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté for 2–3 minutes until it starts to soften.
Add cubed zucchini and cook for another 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until zucchini is tender but not mushy. Stir in the corn and cook for 1 more minute. Remove from heat.
In a large bowl, stir together the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, cheese, Italian seasoning, and chopped rotisserie chicken.
Add the sautéed vegetables to the bowl and stir until everything is well coated.
In a separate bowl, mix the dry stuffing mix with melted butter until evenly coated.
Spread half of the buttered stuffing mix into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture on top and spread it out evenly. Top with the remaining stuffing.
Optional: Sprinkle with extra shredded cheese on top. Just before serving, sprinkle fresh chopped chives or green onions as a garnish.
