Slow Cooker Chicken Cordon Bleu
This 5-Ingredient Slow Cooker Chicken Cordon Bleu layers tender chicken, deli ham, Swiss cheese, and creamy sauce for an easy comfort-food dinner. Serve it over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice to catch every bit of sauce.
INGREDIENTS:
Nonstick cooking spray for the slow cooker
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts Slice horizontally if very thick
4 to 6 slices thin deli ham enough to cover the chicken
4 to 6 slices Swiss cheese or provolone
1 (10.5-ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup milk
salt for the table if needed
pepper for the table if needed
DIRECTIONS:
Lightly spray the inside of your slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
Arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer across the bottom of the slow cooker, slicing very thick breasts in half horizontally first so they cook more evenly.
Lay the deli ham over the chicken, folding or tearing the slices as needed so each breast is covered.
Place the Swiss cheese over the ham so each piece of chicken is covered, or use provolone instead.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and milk until mostly smooth, then pour the mixture evenly over the chicken, ham, and cheese.
Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours or on HIGH for 2 to 3 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through to 165°F in the thickest part …
