A comforting and easy slow cooker meal featuring tender chicken breasts layered with savory stuffing and creamy sauce, perfect for a hands-off dinner that yields flavorful, cozy results.
Ingredients
Scale
Chicken
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper to taste
Stuffing Mix
- 1 box (6 oz) stuffing mix
- 1 cup frozen vegetables (optional: green beans, mixed veggies)
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
Sauce
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup sour cream
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken: Season the chicken breasts evenly with salt and pepper, then place them in the bottom of the slow cooker in a single layer to ensure even cooking.
- Mix the stuffing: In a bowl, combine the stuffing mix with chicken broth. If using, stir in the frozen vegetables for added nutrition and flavor. Spread this mixture evenly over the chicken breasts in the slow cooker.
- Create the sauce: In a separate bowl, mix the cream of chicken soup and sour cream until smooth and well combined. Spread this creamy sauce mixture evenly over the top of the stuffing layer.
- Cook: Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours. The chicken should be fully cooked and tender, and the stuffing will have absorbed the flavors.
- Serve: Once cooked, fluff the stuffing with a fork to lighten it up. Serve warm, pairing with sides like mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal.

- You can add your favorite frozen vegetables for extra nutrients and color.
