Step 4: Mix the Soup and Broth
In a small bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup with the chicken broth. Stir until smooth and well blended.
Step 5: Pour the Soup Mixture Over Chicken
Pour the soup and broth mixture evenly over the chicken breasts. This liquid will keep the chicken moist and cook the stuffing perfectly.
Step 6: Cook Low and Slow
Cover the slow cooker with the lid. Cook on LOW for 5 to 6 hours or on HIGH for about 3 hours. The chicken should be tender and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F or 75°C).
Step 7: Check and Serve
Once done, check that the stuffing has absorbed the liquid and the chicken is juicy and soft. Use a fork to fluff the stuffing before serving.
Serve the chicken and stuffing hot, optionally garnished with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for extra flavor and color.
Tips for Best Results
- Chicken choice: Thighs tend to stay juicier but breasts work well too.
- Stuffing variations: Try different stuffing flavors like herb & garlic or cornbread mix for a twist.
- Add veggies: Toss in chopped celery or carrots with the stuffing for added texture and nutrition.
- Cheese lover? Sprinkle shredded cheese on top in the last 15 minutes of cooking for a melty finish.
- Make it gluten-free: Use gluten-free stuffing mix and soup alternatives.
