Ingredients

2 pounds chicken breasts boneless, skinless If frozen, defrost overnight in the refrigerator or use the microwave’s defrost setting.
10.5 ounces cream of chicken soup canned
1 cup sour cream
6 ounces stuffing mix boxed, regular flavor or cornbread

Instructions

Add Chicken to Slow Cooker

Place the chicken breasts in a single layer at the bottom of the slow cooker.
2 pounds chicken breasts

Mix the Sauce

In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and sour cream until smooth and well combined.
10.5 ounces cream of chicken soup, 1 cup sour cream

Layer Ingredients

Spread the sauce mixture evenly over the chicken.
Sprinkle the dry stuffing mix on top of the sauce. Lightly press it down so it sticks to the sauce, but do not stir. Note: If your stuffing mix has a separate seasoning packet, mix it with the bread cubes before sprinkling.

Cook

Cover with the lid and cook on Low for 6 hours or on High for 4 hours, until the chicken is fork-tender and fully cooked through.

Serve

Fluff the stuffing gently with a fork. Serve warm with a side of green beans or a simple salad.

Notes

Recipe Tips

Use a slow cooker liner for quick clean-up.
You could also lightly spray the bottom of the crock with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Add 1/4 cup of chicken broth if you prefer a looser dressing texture.
Don’t lift the lid while cooking—this drops the heat and extends cook time.
Always check that chicken reaches 165°F with a thermometer.
For a firmer stuffing texture, uncover during the last 30 minutes

Variations

Add Veggies: Stir in frozen peas or green beans in the last hour of cooking.
Cheesy Topping: Sprinkle shredded cheddar or mozzarella on top during the final 15 minutes.
Southern Style: Use cornbread stuffing and a dash of poultry seasoning.

Storage and Reheating

Room Temperature: Do not leave out longer than 2 hours for food safety.
Fridge: Store leftovers in an airtight container up to 3 days.
Freezer: Cool completely, then freeze in portions for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
Reheat: Microwave in 1-minute intervals or bake at 325°F until warmed through. Add a splash of broth if stuffing seems dry.
