Ingredient Notes
- Chicken – Boneless, skinless chicken breasts work best or substitute boneless chicken thighs or tenders.
- Cream soups – Cream of chicken soup or try it with cream of mushroom or cream of onion.
- Stuffing mix – I like the herb roasted stuffing mix or the cornbread stuffing mix. Don’t prepare it, use it dry.
- Sour cream – Use low fat or fat free sour cream if desired. Or substitute plain Greek yogurt.

How To Make Slow Cooker Chicken and Stuffing
- Spray dish with cooking spray. Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of a crock pot.
- Mix the cream soup and the sour cream and pour it over the top of the chicken. Spread into an even layer.
- Sprinkle the stuffing mix over the top in a single layer.
- Cover and cook on low 4-5 hours or on high for 2-3 hours until the chicken is cooked through.

Storage & Reheating
If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Reheat in the microwave at 1 minute intervals or in the oven at 350F until heated through. If it gets a little dry, add a splash of chicken broth.
Serving Suggestions
The creamy chicken can be a little rich, so I like to serve it with some roasted vegetables and a crisp green salad.
Of course you can also serve this over rice or mashed potatoes to soak up all that delicious sauce.
Oven Method
If you don’t want to make it in the slow cooker, you can always just layer everything in a casserole dish and bake at 375F for 45 minutes.
You might need to add a little chicken broth over the top and cover with foil while it cooks. This will seal in the moisture as it cooks, like the crock pot does.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, you can, but you will need to increase the cooking time slightly. Possibly 1 more hour. You can also make this with 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.
No you don’t. That’s why this recipe is so easy!
This is a great recipe to add in some vegetables. I like some sliced carrots or green peas.
If you need more chicken, you can always double the recipe. Just be sure to use a larger slow cooker and you might need additional cooking time.
Recipe Tips & Tricks
- Use a slow cooker liner for easy cleanup and season chicken well before cooking.
- Want crispy stuffing? Transfer to a baking dish and bake at 375°F for 15 minutes after slow cooking.
- Switch up flavors with cream of mushroom, celery, or onion soup, or add extra sour cream/cheese for creaminess.
- Substitute croutons for stuffing mix (break up large pieces first).
- Serve whole chicken breasts or shred and mix everything together before serving.
- I prefer Pepperidge Farms over Stove Top but you can also make your own homemade!
