Description

Crockpot Chicken and Stuffing is the perfect all-in-one slow cooker dinner. Juicy chicken, green beans, and savory stuffing are layered and slow-cooked to perfection in a creamy sauce. Ideal for busy weeknights or cozy meals at home.


Ingredients

Scale

3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts ( to 2 lbs)

1 tsp kosher salt

½ tsp black pepper

1 tsp garlic powder

½ tsp dried Italian seasoning

1 can (14.5 oz) green beans, drained

1 box (6 oz) chicken stuffing mix

1 can (10.5 oz) low-sodium cream of chicken soup

1¼ cups low-sodium chicken broth, divided

¼ cup sour cream

¼ cup butter, melted


Instructions

  • Prep the crock pot.
    Coat a 6‑quart slow cooker with nonstick spray (or lightly butter the inside).

  • Layer the chicken.
    Arrange the chicken breasts in a single, even layer at the base.

  • Season the chicken.
    In a small bowl, whisk together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Sprinkle evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.

  • Add green beans.
    Scatter the drained green beans (or fresh/frozen) over the seasoned chicken.

  • Add dry stuffing.
    Dump the stuffing mix on top, spreading it into an even layer (don’t stir it in).

  • Make the sauce.
    In a medium bowl, mix together the cream of chicken soup, 1 cup of chicken broth, sour cream, and melted butter until smooth.

  • Pour sauce.
    Carefully pour the sauce over the stuffing layer (again, don’t stir).

  • Cook low & slow.
    Cover and cook on High for 4 to 5 hours, or Low for 6 to 7 hours. The chicken should reach 165 °F (74 °C) on an instant‑read thermometer. Be cautious not to overcook.

  • Fluff the stuffing.
    Once done, gently stir the stuffing mixture with a fork to fluff it up. If it seems dry, add the remaining ¼ cup of chicken broth and stir again.

  • Serve.
    Divide onto plates or bowls and enjoy warm.

Notes

Use fresh or frozen green beans if desired (~2 cups).

Add 1 cup diced onion, celery, corn, or peas for variety.

Swap cream of chicken with mushroom or celery soup.

Chicken thighs work just as well.

Use gluten-free stuffing mix and soup for a gluten-free option.
