Ingredient Notes

  • Chicken – Boneless, skinless chicken breasts work best or substitute chicken thighs or tenders.
  • Cream soups – Cream of chicken soup or try it with cream of mushroom or onion.
  • Stuffing mix – I like the herb roasted stuffing mix or the cornbread stuffing mix.
  • Sour cream – Use low fat or fat free sour cream if desired. Or substitute plain Greek yogurt.

How long does it last?

You can store any leftover chicken and stuffing in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or in the oven.

If it gets a little dry, add a splash of chicken broth.

Can I use frozen chicken breasts?

Yes, you can use frozen chicken breasts, but be sure to adjust the cooking time a bit. You will probably need to add one more hour to the cook time.

You can also make this pork tenderloins or pork chops. I love making pork in the slow cooker because it gets so tender. Here is my favorite recipe for crock pot pork chops.

Do I have to cook the stuffing first?

Not at all. The dry stuffing mix will cook and hydrate from the steam rising in the crockpot.

Can I add in some vegetables?

Absolutely! Feel free to add your favorite vegetables such as diced carrots, peas, or green beans for added flavor and veggies.

Doing this will make this slow cooker chicken with stuffing a full meal!

Can I double the recipe?

Yes, you can double or triple the ingredients to make a larger batch. Just make sure to use a larger slow cooker or adjust the cooking time if needed.

Tips For The Best Casserole

  • Line the slow cooker with a liner for easier cleanup.
  • Season the boneless chicken breasts with salt, pepper, or your favorite seasoning mix before placing them in the slow cooker.
  • For crispier stuffing, transfer to a baking dish and bake at 375°F for about 15 minutes after slow cooking.
  • You can also substitute salad croutons for the stuffing mix. Just be sure to break up any large pieces.
  • Switch to cream of mushroom soup, cream of celery or cream of onion for a slightly different flavor.
  • For a creamier texture, you can add a little extra sour cream or even shredded cheese to the soup mixture.
  • Add your favorite vegetables like diced carrots, peas, corn, or green beans to create a one-pot meal.
