Equipment
- Slow Cooker
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon garlic and herb seasoning
- 10 oz frozen cut green beans
- 8 oz carrots peeled and sliced ½ inch thick
- 1 box 6oz chicken-flavored stuffing mix
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon powdered chicken bouillon or one cube
- ½ teaspoons salt
Instructions
- Add chicken to slow cooker and sprinkle with seasoning blend evenly
- Top with green beans and carrots (or vegetables of choice)
- Top with contents of stuffing box and spread evenly over chicken
- Melt butter in microwave in a small glass bowl and let it cool slightly
- Whisk flour into melted butter until smooth
- Whisk in broth, cream, bouillon, and salt
- Pour over mixture in slow cooker
- Cover and cook on high for 2-3 hours or low for 4-6 hours until chicken is cooked through
- If desired, leave cover off slow cooker for the last 30 minutes to crisp up stuffing
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheat in a 350 ℉ oven (covered with foil) for 15-20 minutes, and broil briefly to re-crisp the top (optional). Or, use the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring occasionally.
- Layer the ingredients instead of stirring to keep the texture of the stuffing.
- Grease the slow cooker or use a liner for easy cleanup.
