    Crock Pot Chicken and Stuffing Ingredients

    Four ingredients needed for making crock pot chicken and stuffing.Pin

    Here's what you'll need to make this 4 ingredient slow cooker chicken with stuffing casserole:

    • Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts: I used chicken breasts but if I need to be away from the crock pot for longer than 4 hours, I used chicken thighs - they don't dry out as quickly.
    • Dry Boxed Stuffing Mix: chicken flavor or herb had the best flavor!
    • Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup: regular of a lower-fat cream of chicken soup may be used.
    • Chicken Broth: broth or stock can be used, some is mixed into the soup and some is blended with the stuffing.
    • Optional Add-in: 10-ounce bag of frozen green beans.
    • Optional thickener: cornstarch can be added to thicken the sauce, if desired.

    For exact ingredient quantities, please see the recipe card below!

    Variations

    Here are some suggestions for customizing your dish:

    • Make it a 5-ingredient crock pot chicken and stuffing - and a meal-in-one 🙂 by adding a 10-ounce bag of frozen green beans over the chicken breasts . Whisk in 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with the chicken soup and broth to help thicken the extra juice from the green beans.
    • ¼ cup melted butter can be drizzled over the top of the stuffing prior to serving.
    • ½ cup sour cream can be mixed into the soup and water before cooking.

    Slow Cooker Tips

    Tip #1: Chicken breasts can dry out if left to cook too long. Only cook them until they reach 165 degrees F. If you are concerned, chicken thighs can be used instead.

    Tip #2: After cooking, there may be quite a few juices at the bottom of the crock pot. Work the stuffing into the juices and fluff if needed.

    Tip #3: If you add frozen green beans, be sure to whisk 1 tablespoon of cornstarch into the broth to help thicken the additional liquid that green beans will add.
