  • salt and pepper

  • Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  • Combine the stuffing mix and cream of chicken soup in a bowl - add optional spices if desired.
  • Top the chicken with the stuffing mixture.
  • Cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 5-6 hours until the chicken reaches 165°F on a digital thermometer.

Notes

Chef Jenn's tips

    • You can use frozen chicken breasts, but you'll have to add about 2 hours to the cooking time.
    • Use cream of mushroom soup for a slightly different flavor, or add chopped carrots, chopped onion, mushrooms or even a few potatoes to the crock pot under the chicken.
    • Use low-sodium soup or season the chicken very lightly. It will be too salty if you season the chicken well AND use regular cream soup.
    • Scoop up the sauce from the bottom of the slow cooker and serve it as gravy.
