Ingredients
- ⅔ cup dried stuffing mix
- 1 30 oz carton of low sodium chicken broth
- 4 chicken breasts
- 3 tbsp sour cream
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp onion powder
- salt to taste
- cracked black pepper to taste
- 4 brioche burger rolls
Instructions
- Prepare and bake the stuffing mix as per the packets instructions.
- Bring the chicken broth to a boil in a large cooking pot with a lid. Add the chicken breasts and reduce the heat to medium low, cooking with the lid on for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. If the broth does not quite cover the chicken, top it up with water.
- Shred the chicken on a cutting board with two forks. Remove the broth from the pan, and return the chicken along with the sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, and some salt and pepper to taste. Stir gently back over a medium low heat to warm through.
- Meanwhile, toast the brioche.
- Divide the creamy shredded chicken between the buns and top with crumbled stuffing. Serve immediately.

Notes
- Reserve the chicken broth you used to cook the chicken to use in other recipes, it’s now just chicken broth with much more chicken flavor! It should keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- To cook the chicken in the slow cooker, cook on low for 3 hours.
