Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Soup
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (2 ½ pounds)
- 2 cans cream of chicken soup (10.5 ounces each)
- ½ cup sour cream (122 grams)
- ¼ cup diced white onion
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
Stuffing Topping
- 1 box chicken stuffing mix (6 ounces)
- ¼ cup salted butter (melted)
Garnish
- Fresh parsley for garnishing
Instructions
- Prepare the Slow Cooker: Place the chicken breasts evenly in the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker lined for easy cleanup.
- Add Cream Soup Mixture: Pour the condensed cream of chicken soup evenly over the chicken breasts.
- Mix Sour Cream: Add the sour cream on top, then use a rubber spatula to gently swirl the soup and sour cream together without disturbing the chicken too much.
- Season: Sprinkle the diced white onion and dried parsley flakes evenly over the top of the mixture.
- Prepare Stuffing: In a small bowl, combine the dry chicken stuffing mix with the melted butter, ensuring all pieces are coated.
- Add Stuffing Layer: Evenly sprinkle the buttered stuffing mix over the top of the chicken and soup mixture in the slow cooker.
- Cook: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours, or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
- Optional Crisping: If you prefer a firmer stuffing topping, uncover the slow cooker during the last 45 minutes of cooking. Note that it won’t become crispy but will firm up slightly.
- Serve: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve alongside mashed potatoes and vegetables for a complete meal.
- Store Leftovers: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
