Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of mushroom soup (or use 2 cans of cream of chicken)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 (6 oz) box Stove Top stuffing mix (chicken flavor)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme (optional)
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted

Instructions

  • Prepare the slow cooker – Lightly grease the inside of a slow cooker with nonstick spray.
  • Layer the chicken – Place chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and thyme.
  • Mix the sauce – In a bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and milk. Spread the mixture over the chicken.
  • Add the stuffing – In a separate bowl, combine the stuffing mix with melted butter and chicken broth. Stir until moistened. Spread the stuffing over the soup mixture in the slow cooker.
  • Cook – Cover and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender.
  • Serve – Fluff the stuffing with a fork and serve warm.

Notes

  • Swap cream of mushroom soup for another can of cream of chicken if preferred.
  • Add frozen green beans or peas on top of the chicken for a one-pot meal.
  • Use boneless chicken thighs for extra tenderness.
  • If you prefer crispy stuffing, transfer to a baking dish and broil for 5 minutes before serving.
