  • Meanwhile, toss the butter into a medium sized pan, and melt over medium heat.

  • Cook the vegetables until they soften, then add in the garlic, seasonings, and chopped herbs.
  • Turn the heat off, and stir the ingredients.
  • Add the cooked vegetables, chicken, and herb mixture into the large bowl with crumbled cornbread and crackers.
  • Add in the cream of mushroom soup, and the egg then fold the ingredients.
  • Add the mixture into a lightly greased or buttered 9 x 13 bake dish, and cover.
  • Let bake for 1 hour.
  • Remove from the oven, uncover, and bake for 30 minutes.
