I am very lucky to have a husband who loves cooking and is good at it. When he is working however, he usually doesn’t get back in time to make dinner, so I handle it during the week. Now don’t get me wrong, I love to cook as well. But during the week, with school pick ups, extracurricular activities and play dates, I am just looking for the quickest and easiest way to get dinner on the table. Enter my trusty old friend, the slow cooker. I have used it in the past to prepare many family friendly recipes. Today’s Slow Cooker Chicken and Stuffing only has four ingredients and cooks up in 3-4 hours so it could not be easier to prepare. If you are looking for more ways to use chicken, head on over to 15 Sunday Dinner Chicken Recipes and One Pan Chicken and Rice.
Slow Cooker Chicken and Stuffing - Just four ingredients make this simple family friendly recipe.

Ingredients:
  • 6 oz box of stuffing
  • 1 peeled and chopped red delicious apple
  • 1 1/2 cups of chicken broth
  • 2 lbs of defrosted uncooked chicken breasts
  • Cooking spray

Ingredients for chicken and stuffing
Spray the inside of the slow cooker with cooking spray. Pour in a box of stuffing and add chopped apple.

Add one and a half cups of chicken broth to the stuffing and stir. Add the chicken breasts on top.

Cook on high for 3-4 hours. At the two hour mark, stir the stuffing and chicken. If the stuffing looks dry, you can add 1/4-1/2 cup of water at this time. Cover and resume cooking.

Being cooked in the slow cooker makes the chicken so tender and juicy. And the stuffing is just the way I remember as a kid. If you have ever had stuffing from inside a turkey (it’s more frowned upon these days to make it that way) then this moist stuffing with apples is very reminiscent of that.
