Crockpot Chicken Green Beans and Potatoes in Crock Pot Ingredients
Here are the ingredients you will need to make this slow cooker chicken potatoes and green beans:
- Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs: substitute with bone in or boneless skinless chicken breasts if preferred. Increase your cooking time if using bone-in.
- New Baby Potatoes: you can find these near the other potatoes, and they are normally sold by the pound. You can use any types you like.
- Dry Chicken Gravy Mix: substitute with Lipton onion soup mix if preferred.
- Lemon Juice: freshly squeezed lemon juice is best. However, you can use prepackaged for ease.
- Italian Dressing Seasoning
- Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup: you can substitute with cream of mushroom as well! Grab what you have in your pantry.
- Fresh Green Beans: substitute with frozen green beans to hold up in the crockpot for longer.
For exact ingredient quantities, please see the recipe card below!
Variations
- Use Lipton onion soup mix instead of the dry chicken gravy if desired.
- Use frozen green beans instead of fresh ones! They will take longer to cook than the fresh ones so add them after the chicken and potatoes have cooked about 3 hours. If you have thin frozen beans I recommend you add them at the same time as the fresh ones - so after the chicken and potato mixture has cooked about 4 hours.
- Thicken your sauce at the end of cooking with a cornstarch slurry. Use a 1:1 ratio when creating. One tablespoon of cornstarch to one tablespoon of water. Stir together until well combined, and then mix into your gray. Add more until your desired thickness is achieved.

Slow Cooker Tips
Tip #1 You can use bone-in chicken thighs if you need to stretch your cooking time. Bone-in chicken thighs or breasts take longer to cook, so they stay tender for longer.
Tip #2 Use frozen vegetables instead of fresh ones so they hold up while cooking for a longer period of time.
Tip #3 Check the internal temperature of your chicken when getting closer to being done. A safe internal temperature is 165 degrees F.

Cathy says
I made this recipe exactly as written, using the Lipton onion soup mix instead of the gravy packet and making my own "copycat" cream of chicken soup. This was absolutely delicious. The cooking times were spot on and everything was cooked to perfection and the sauce was soooo good. Thank you, this recipe is now officially part of my crockpot rotation recipes 🙂
Kori says
Thank you! I'm so glad you loved this crockpot chicken recipe - it's one of my favorites as it's a meal in one! 🙂
Kathryn says
Could this be made a day ahead of time and reheated in the crockpot the next day. Or else partially cooked a day ahead? Thanks.
Kori says
Yes, you could definitely make ahead and reheat in your crockpot the next day. Or, you could pop into the microwave to warm just the servings you need - whatever is easiest!
Carol says
Not sure how to add frozen thin green beans as I think they’d cook fast, tho you say add in beginning with everything else. So then is it maybe 5 hours on low if I do that?
Kori says
Hello! I would add them after the chicken and potatoes have cooked about 4 hours, so the same as if you were adding fresh green beans. Since they are the thin kind, they should cook similarly to the fresh.
Carol says
Thank you.
Kori says
Enjoy! 🙂
Jenna says
Could I use boneless chicken breasts instead of thighs?
Kori says
Yes, absolutely! 🙂 They might cook a little quicker than thighs though
