kcalIngredients
4 large chicken breasts
1 container chicken-flavored stovetop stuffing mix
8 ounces sour cream (use half, about 4 ounces)
1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 small can reduced sodium chicken broth (use ½ cup, more if needed)
Salt and pepper (for seasoning)
Directions
- Prepare the Crock Pot and Chicken
Place four large chicken breasts into the bottom of the crock pot. The chicken should be seasoned with salt and pepper before adding. If desired, you can layer vegetables such as carrots or onions underneath the chicken, but this version keeps it simple with just the chicken as the base. - Mix the Stuffing Topping
In a mixing bowl, combine one container of chicken-flavored stovetop stuffing mix, half of an 8-ounce container of sour cream (about 4 ounces), one can of condensed cream of chicken soup, and half a cup of chicken broth (from a small can). Stir everything together until well incorporated. - Spread Over the Chicken
Evenly spread the stuffing mixture over the top of the chicken breasts in the crock pot, covering them as thoroughly as possible. - Slow Cook
Place the lid on the crock pot and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours. If, at the end of cooking, the stuffing appears a bit dry, you can add a little more chicken broth as needed. In this preparation, no additional broth was required. - Serve
Once the chicken is fully cooked and juicy, serve warm. This dish pairs well with a simple side salad for a complete meal.

Notes
- If you prefer to keep vegetables separate from the stuffing, you can place a piece of foil with a few holes poked in it over the chicken and add vegetables on top, allowing the steam to cook them without mixing everything together.
