Ingredients
Scale
Turkey
- 2 pounds boneless skinless turkey breasts
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- Seasoning of choice (e.g., poultry seasoning, garlic powder, or herbs)
Stuffing Mixture
- 1 6 oz box of stuffing mix (any flavor you prefer)
- 1 10.5 oz can cream of chicken soup
- 3/4 cup sour cream
- 1 cup chicken stock
Instructions
- Prepare the Crockpot: Spray the inside of the crockpot thoroughly with cooking spray to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Layer the Turkey: Place the turkey breasts at the bottom of the crockpot. Season them generously with salt, pepper, and your preferred seasonings to impart flavor throughout the cooking process.
- Make the Stuffing Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and chicken stock until smooth and well blended. Gently fold in the stuffing mix, being careful not to overmix to maintain a nice texture.
- Assemble the Casserole: Spread the prepared stuffing mixture evenly over the turkey breasts in the crockpot, covering them completely to lock in moisture and flavor.
- Cook: Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on the high setting for 4 hours. This slow cooking method will thoroughly cook the turkey while allowing the stuffing mixture to set into a delicious casserole.
- Serve: After cooking, remove the lid and serve the casserole hot. The dish pairs well with a simple green vegetable or salad for a complete meal.
