Easy Slow Cooker Chicken and Stuffing
on Oct 13, 2015, Updated Jan 30, 2024
I made this super Easy Slow Cooker Chicken and Stuffing this weekend and I think it may just be my families favorite Crock-Pot meal yet. With just a couple chicken breasts and some Stove Top stuffing, we have a comfort meal that is so super easy.
Easy Slow Cooker Chicken and Stuffing
Crock-Pot meals are my favorite meals during the fall and winter. I can toss everything in the slow cooker and have a meal ready early on school days. Slow Cooker Meat Loaf is a favorite this time of year but since the price of ground beef has been inching up and up, I have been making more chicken dishes. Thanksgiving dinners are always comforting and this Crock-Pot Chicken and stuffing reminds me of dinner on the Thanksgiving holiday.
This meal is so super simple. I have been able to score boneless chicken breasts for $1.99 per pound and this meal can stretch the chicken since I combine it with stuffing and a veggie.
I used three chicken breasts, two boxes of Stove Top Stuffing, 2 cans of chicken broth, and 2 cans of cream of chicken soup. You could even cut this recipe in half for a smaller family. The larger chicken breasts cook well and can stretch far when serving with stuffing and veggies. The recipe is super simple and is so comforting for the cold months.
INGREDIENTS
2 lb Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast
2 box Stovetop Chicken Stuffing Mix
2 can Cream of Chicken Soup
1 can (14 oz) Chicken Broth
Salt & Pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
Spray slow cooker with non stick spray.
Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Place in bottom of slow cooker.
Sprinkle stuffing mix over the top of the chicken.
Whisk together soup and broth until blended and pour evenly over dry stuffing.
Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 7 hours.

I should have read the reviews before cooking. I had the same issue as many others where the stuffing was burned on the bottom and too liquid on top. I think mixing the soups and stuffing first, then topping the chicken might work better.
There was inconsistency in the write up and the ingredient list. I used the 2 cream of chicken and 1 can of broth. Maybe a second broth might also have helped prevent the burning.
Even still, didn’t hate it and definitely willing to give it another shot.
Absolutely one of best and easiest recipes for a great tasting comfort food,
I love this recipe for the crockpot. Do you have an equivalent for the oven? Same ingredients but for how long and what temperature?
this is a very delicious meal. Ive made it once or twice now…though after reading one view it did make me realize the stuffing is a bit dry once cooked ..so what i did was use 1/2 the 10oz chicken soup and 1/2 the 14oz chicken broth mixed together with 1 box of stove top chicken stuffing… I then spread that evenly over the chicken breasts…. I repeated with the 2nd box of stove top chicken stuffing and put that over top the stuffing ontop of the chicken breasts… I did mixed the two stuffings just a bit not much… then opened another 10oz can of cream of chicken and 14pz can chicken broth used about half not even and mixed them together… last I poured the soap n broth mixture evenly over top of the stuffing… put lid on and its cooking on hight just over an hour now… cant wait for it to be dinner time this recipe is very tastey and filling as well..thank you for sharing your recipe :^)
this is a very delicious meal and ive made it one other time … i was reading comments and it reminded me that yes the stuffing is dry once cooked and not mixed well … so what i did was take half 10oz chicken soup and half the 14oz chicken broth mixed and mixed it together with 1 box of chicken stove top stuffing and layered evenly over the chicken breast… i repated with the rest of the chicken soup, chicken broth and mixed again the 2nd box of stove top chicken stuffing and evenly put that ontop of the stuffing already in crockpot and mixed it around some … i then proceded to open 2nd 14oz can of broth and cream of chicken soup and mixed it well together and poured evenly over top of it all put lid on crockpot and its cooking now on high … thank you so much for your recipe i do enjoy this meal very much very yummy and filling :^)
This recipe was really good, but to keep the stuffing from being dry I mixed half of the soup mix with the stuffing before placing in the crockpot and then poured the rest over the top . This kept everything moist.
Very easy and filling. (I think bells stuffing has the best flavor )
Excellent and easy! Thanks so much for the great recipe. I halved the recipe but still used my 6-quart crockpot. I didn’t add any salt, just pepper, and I don’t think it needed more salt. I also put frozen (skinless and boneless) chicken breasts into the crockpot instead of thawing them first, and the meat stayed really moist but was cooked all the way through. I added the extra 7 ounces of broth (so the halved batch has 14 ounces of broth) at the very end and stirred it all up together, breaking up the chicken breasts as I did, so it seemed more like a stuffing casserole with chicken. It was delicious, that’s for sure.
Can you use cornbread stuffing
Soup mix didn’t meld with the stuffing during cooking, had to mix well after done. Dry stuffing stuck to sides and burnt. Because stuffing had to be mixed well, had to shred chicken into it.
Next time I will layer the soup mix between the 2 boxes of stuffing.
I love this and make it often. I was running late this morning and didn’t get it in the crockpot, so how long would you suggest in the oven? I am using chicken tenders instead of full breasts.
Would you cook for the same time if used chicken thighs?
Huban pleaser..Have made several times 😊
Add 2 to 3 tbs of dry sherry to the soup mix and it will blow your mind.
This is a good meal for someone who is just learning how to cook. I would don’t add salt, since most canned soups have a lot of salt Also use a crock pot liner for a easier clean up.
Well…let me say this about that…. I won’t make it again until I figure out how to make it in a 4qt crockpot! The chicken was okay but the rest of it was nasty. The soup mixture didn’t make it too the stuffing mix so that part was pretty much the way it was when it started to cook. It was stuck to the side and bottom of the pot and I sprayed the fool out of it. The only thing I can say is that it smelled good. I was looking forward to the meatloaf recipe for the crockpot but now I am afraid to try it! I live in an assisted living apartment and we don’t have an oven so if I want anything other than the food they have I have to make my own. Oh well that’s life.
I make mine a little differently.
Spray slow cooker bottom & sides. Chicken on bottom & season with pepper & salt. Then I mix a can of cream of chicken & a can of cream of celery & spread that evenly on top of chicken.
I cook some diced celery & onion. (that is how I like it but can skip that step) I mix the cooked celery , onion & chicken broth in with the 2 boxes of dry stuffing. Spread the stuffing evenly on top of the chicken & I put a few dollops of butter all over stuffing. Not much just little pieces all over.
I cook mine on low & it’s delicious.
Great dish, quick to fix and everyone loves it!
