Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

  • 4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 (10.5 oz) cans cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup diced onions

Stuffing Topping

  • 1/4 cup salted butter, melted
  • 1 (6 oz) box stuffing mix

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crockpot: Place the 4 large boneless skinless chicken breasts evenly in the bottom of your crockpot to create an even cooking base.
  2. Season and Coat Chicken: Sprinkle the dried parsley, onion powder, and garlic salt over the chicken. Then add the sour cream and both cans of cream of chicken soup. Stir gently to ensure the chicken breasts are completely coated in the creamy mixture.
  3. Add Onions: Scatter the diced onions evenly over the top of the chicken and sauce mixture to impart a mild sweetness and flavor as it cooks.
  4. Prepare Stuffing Topping: In a medium bowl, combine the melted salted butter with the stuffing mix. Stir until the stuffing is fully moistened and evenly coated with butter.
  5. Top with Stuffing: Spoon the buttery stuffing mixture evenly over the chicken and sauce layer in the crockpot to create a crunchy topping as it cooks.
  6. Cook: Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on low heat for about 6 hours. The chicken will become tender and the stuffing topping will soak up the flavors and cook through.
  7. Finish and Serve: Once done, sprinkle with a little fresh parsley for garnish and serve directly from the crockpot while hot for a cozy and delicious meal.

Notes

  • You can substitute cream of chicken soup with cream of mushroom for a different flavor.
  • Use low-sodium versions of soup and butter if you want to reduce sodium content.
  • Feel free to add cooked vegetables like carrots or peas to the crockpot for added nutrition.
  • Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently in the microwave or oven.
