Ingredients

cooking spray
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 cups sliced yellow squash
2 medium onions, chopped
2 cups shredded cooked chicken breast
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
16 saltine crackers, crushed
1 cup mayonnaise
3 large eggs
2 tablespoons dry ranch dressing mix (such as Hidden Valley Ranch®)
ground black pepper to taste
2 cups herb-seasoned stuffing mix (such as Pepperidge Farm®)
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add squash and onions and cook just until softened, 7 to 10 minutes. Don't overcook. Remove from heat and stir in chicken, Cheddar cheese, and crackers.
Whisk mayonnaise, eggs, ranch dressing, and pepper together in a bowl. Gently stir into squash mixture and spread into the prepared baking dish.
Combine stuffing mix and 1/2 cup melted butter in a separate bowl. Sprinkle over squash mixture, pressing down slightly.
Bake in the preheated oven until set and lightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley.
