Ingredients:

Garlic Salt – Garlic Powder or minced garlic would work great too.
Cream of Chicken Soup
Sour Cream
Stove Top chicken boxed Stuffing mix
Frozen green beans – I do not recommend canned green beans for this recipe as they will fall apart with the long cook time that is needed to make this crock pot recipe.

Can you make this without cream soup?

Yes! You can make your own Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup.

It is so easy and tastes really delicious. This is a great option and only takes a few minutes to make.

Just use what works for your family. Crockpot Chicken and Stuffing recipe will be delicious with either option.

Sour Cream Substitutes

If you cannot have sour cream or you don’t have any on hand, these substitutions work great in this recipe.

Plain Greek Yogurt
Mayonnaise
or Milk (as a last resort)

Tips for Chicken and Stuffing:

Use non-stick cooking spray – If your crock pot doesn’t have a non stick insert that I recommend using a non stick cooking spray before making this dinner for easy serving.
Filet the Chicken. – If your chicken breasts are larger, filet them into smaller pieces so that they cook more evenly.
It is important to layer ingredients and not mix. – Layer in the ingredients in the crock pot instead of mixing them together. This is hard as most of my other recipes require mixing but not this one. Evenly layer the ingredients in instead.
Do NOT prepare the stuffing mix based on the package instructions. – Just sprinkle the dry mix on top and the moisture from the meal with create the stuffing for this recipe.

How to make a firmer stuffing?

The stuffing in this recipe is softer since it’s cooked in a slow cooker. If you like more firm stuffing, you can add more of the mix to this recipe.

Plus you can remove the lid from the crock pot for the last 30-60 minutes of the cook time so that some of the extra moisture will cook off of the stuffing in the slow cooker.

Can this meal be frozen?

Yes, you can freeze this meal. Be sure to put in a freezer safe container and it will last up to 3-4 months.

To reheat individual portion, just place in a microwave safe dish and start with about 1 minute then stir. Continue to do this until stuffing is heated. Make sure to thaw first before reheating in the microwave.

If I have a lot of chicken stuffing leftover, I will place in a baking dish and reheat in the oven at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes.

How to make Crockpot Chicken and Stuffing:

Place the boneless seasoned chicken breast in the crock pot. I like to filet mine, but that is optional.

In a medium bowl mix together the cream of chicken soup and sour cream. Some recipes call for 1 cup of water to be mixed into this mixture; however, I have found that this is not needed as the chicken releases a lot of water as it cooks…
