A comforting and easy slow cooker meal featuring tender chicken breasts cooked with savory stuffing mix and vegetables, perfect for a hearty family dinner.
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup water
1 package (6 ounces) herb seasoned stuffing mix
1 medium onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried sage
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn)
Spray the inside of the slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray.
Place the diced onion, celery, and minced garlic in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Add the chicken breasts on top of the vegetables.
In a medium bowl, combine the chicken broth, water, dried thyme, dried sage, black pepper, and salt.
Pour the broth mixture evenly over the chicken breasts in the slow cooker.
Sprinkle the herb seasoned stuffing mix evenly over the chicken and broth mixture.
Drizzle the melted butter over the stuffing mix.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 4 to 4 1/2 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through and the stuffing is tender.
About 30 minutes before serving, sprinkle the frozen mixed vegetables over the stuffing, cover, and continue cooking until the vegetables are heated through.
Carefully fluff the stuffing with a fork before serving to mix the vegetables and chicken juices.
