Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 cups Broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 10.5 ounces Cream of chicken soup
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 cups Cooked white or brown rice (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Spray the inside of your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray or line it with a slow-cooker liner for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock pot in a single layer.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, mix together the cream of chicken soup, cream cheese, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 4
Pour the mixture over the chicken breasts, making sure they are fully coated.
Step 5
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low for 4-5 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Step 6
About 30 minutes before the cooking time is complete, add the broccoli florets to the crock pot, spreading them evenly over the top of the chicken.
Step 7
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the broccoli and chicken, then re-cover the slow cooker and allow the cheese to melt and the broccoli to steam.
Step 8
Once the cooking time is finished, stir gently to mix the cheese into the sauce, and shred the chicken if desired. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Step 9
To serve, spoon the broccoli cheese chicken over cooked rice, if using, and enjoy!
