Tips and Suggestions

  • Be sure not to overcook your chicken. It’s a good idea to check it at the lower end of the time range and remove it from the slow cooker as soon as it’s cooked through.
  • If you’re using smaller chicken breasts, you may be able to fit in more than four. Just be sure not to overcrowd the slow cooker basket and only put as many in as you can fit in a single layer.
  • For best results use thawed raw chicken in this recipe. It will not work as well with frozen or pre-cooked chicken.

Variations

  • If you don’t like Swiss cheese, you can substitute Monterey jack, mozzarella, or even cheddar.
  • You can use any flavor of stuffing that you like in this recipe.
  • All kinds of ham will work in this recipe, including slices of ham from the deli, or leftovers from a bone-in ham. Just use whatever you have on hand.
  • Place your leftovers between 2 slices of crusty French bread to make a chicken cordon bleu sandwich.
