Made with chicken breast, green beans, and stuffing, this creamy Crockpot Chicken and Stuffing is a complete meal in one. It’s a stick to your ribs, pure comfort food dish that you can enjoy year-round with just 10 minutes of prep!

Tip and Possible Variations

• Vegetables. I include green beans in this dish (fresh, frozen, or canned can be used.) Feel free to add in 1 cup of other vegetables. Either one of these or a combination: diced onion, diced celery, corn, or frozen peas and carrots.
• Use a different soup. Swap out the cream of chicken soup for cream of mushroom soup or cream of celery, if preferred.
• Chicken stuffing mix. I use StoveTop chicken stuffing mixing, but you can use a different brand or a different flavor, if preferred, as long as it’s still a 6 ounce box.
• Add an additional chicken breast. If your chicken is on the smaller side, you can add an extra one as long as they all fit in a single layer.
• Use chicken thighs. The chicken breasts can be replaced with boneless chicken thighs, as long as the total weight is the same. It doesn’t change the other ingredients or cooking time.
• Make the stuffing crispy. If you like the stuffing to be crispier, remove the lid the last 30 minutes of cooking. Alternatively, you can also put the crock in a 400 degree oven for 10-15 minutes to brown and firm up the stuffing.
• Don’t overcook the chicken. Use an internal thermometer to see when it’s time to shut the slow cooker off. When it reads 165F, your chicken is ready. Don’t overcook it or it may dry out.

Made with chicken breast, green beans, and stuffing, this creamy Crockpot Chicken and Stuffing is a complete meal in one. It's a stick to your ribs, pure comfort food dish that you can enjoy year-round with just 10 minutes of prep!

Ingredients 

1x2x3x

• ▢ 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, (1 & 1/2 to 2 pounds)
• ▢ 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• ▢ 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• ▢ 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• ▢ 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
• ▢ 1 can (14.5 ounce) green beans, , drained (see note)
• ▢ 1 box (6 ounce) chicken stuffing mix
• ▢ 1 can (10.5 ounce) low-sodium cream of chicken soup
• ▢ 1 1/4 cups low sodium chicken broth, , divided
• ▢ 1/4 cup sour cream
• ▢ 1/4 cup butter, , melted

Instructions 

• Coat a 6 quart crock pot with nonstick cooking spray. Add chicken breasts in a single layer.
• In a small bowl whisk together the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning; sprinkle the mixture on both sides of the chicken.
  
• Top the chicken with the green beans.
  
• Pour the stuffing mix on top of the green beans in an even layer.
  
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken, 1 cup of chicken broth, sour cream, and butter. Pour the mixture over the stuffing. Don't stir.
  
• Place the lid on the crock pot and cook on high for about 4 to 5 hours or low 6-7 hours (or until the chicken registers 165 degrees F on an instant read thermometer – don't over cook or the chicken could end up dry.)
  
• Gently stir the stuffing mixture with a fork to fluff it up. If the mixture seems dry, mix in the additional 1/4 cup of chicken broth.
• Divide onto individual plates and dig in!

Notes

Green beans. Fresh or frozen green beans can be used instead of the canned. If using fresh, you’ll want about 2 cups, cut into 1-inch pieces.

Add in other vegetables. Feel free to add in 1 cup of other vegetables. Either one of these or a combination: diced onion, diced celery, corn, or frozen peas and carrots.

Use a different soup. Swap out the cream of chicken soup for cream of mushroom soup or cream of celery, if preferred.

Use chicken thighs. The chicken breasts can be replaced with boneless chicken thighs, as long as the total weight is the same. It doesn’t change the other ingredients or cooking time.

What to Serve with Chicken and Stuffing

This dish is truly an all-in-one meal but you can definitely serve it with a side dish or two. A few of my favorite pairings are cornbread, creamed corn, and 7Up biscuits. Roasted carrots and a side salad can also round out the mea.

How to Store & Reheat Leftovers

• How to store leftovers. Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
• How to reheat leftovers. To reheat you can do this in the microwave. If you want a crispy stuffing you can put it in the oven on broil for a minute or two to crisp it up. Just be sure to keep an eye on it so it doesn’t burn.
