Ah yes! That’s a classic easy slow cooker chicken and stuffing casserole—super simple, hands-off, and packed with flavor. Here’s how to make it step by step:
Slow Cooker Chicken with Stuffing Mix
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
- 1 can cream of chicken soup (10–11 oz)
- 1 cup chicken broth (or water)
- 1 packet dry stuffing mix (about 6 oz)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: frozen vegetables (peas, carrots, or corn)
Instructions
- Prepare the slow cooker
- Spray the insert with nonstick cooking spray or lightly oil it.
- Layer the chicken
- Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Add soup and broth
- Pour the cream of chicken soup and chicken broth over the chicken.
- Stir lightly so chicken is mostly covered.
- Add dry stuffing mix
- Dump the dry stuffing mix evenly on top.
- Do not stir—it will absorb the moisture and cook into a soft, flavorful topping.
- Cook
- Low: 4–5 hours
- High: 2–3 hours
- Chicken should be fully cooked (165°F / 74°C) and the stuffing tender.
- Optional finishing touch
- Sprinkle shredded cheese on top for the last 15 minutes of cooking for a cheesy version.
- Stir in cooked vegetables if using, or serve on the side.
- Serve
- Fluff the stuffing and serve with chicken. Delicious and comforting!
Tips
- Add flavor: Sauté onions or garlic before adding for extra depth.
- Creamier stuffing: Mix a little milk into the stuffing mix before dumping it on top.
- Meal prep: This recipe is easy to double for a crowd.
If you want, I can also give a one-pot slow cooker version with a crispy topping—it turns the stuffing golden and slightly crunchy while keeping the chicken tender inside.
Do you want me to share that version?
