Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 can 10.5 oz cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil optional

Instructions

  • Prepare the chicken breasts by trimming excess fat and seasoning them with salt and pepper.
  • If using, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  • Transfer the chicken breasts to the crockpot and add the broccoli florets on top.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, milk, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until smooth and pour over the chicken and broccoli.
  • Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and tender.
  • About 30 minutes before serving, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top, allowing it to melt into the dish.
  • Once the cooking time is complete, shred the chicken directly in the crockpot with two forks and mix everything gently together.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if necessary before serving.
