Easy Cheesy Chicken and Broccoli Over Rice

A long time ago my sister-in-law gave me a recipe for chicken in the crock pot that was so easy and crazy good. Here's a fun spin on that same recipe. Adding some cheese and broccoli makes you think you're actually doing something a little healthy, doesn't it? This little dish is great to have on a chilly night and it's so easy. Everything gets dumped into the crock pot except the sour cream and the broccoli then you basically forget about it until you stir in those last two ingredients. Serve over rice....BOOM! Dinner!
