    Crockpot Chicken and Stuffing

    This crockpot chicken recipe is designed for busy schedules. With just a few minutes of prep in the morning, you can come home to a delicious, cooked meal. It saves time and reduces the stress of last-minute cooking.

    Using a crockpot takes the hassle out of cooking. There's no need to constantly watch over the stove, and the slow cooking process brings out the rich flavors in the ingredients. Plus, cleanup is a breeze with just one pot to clean!

    Slow Cooker Chicken Recipes

    The slow cooker is a lifesaver when it comes to cooking chicken. First of all, it requires minimal effort. You can just toss in all the ingredients, set the timer and go about your day without worrying about constantly checking on the chicken.

    Plus, the slow cooking process produces chicken that is cooked thoroughly and remains juicy and tender. It's also great for busy folks who don't have time to stand over a stove or oven. Here are some of our favorite ways to make chicken in the crock pot:

    • Crockpot Chicken and Noodles
    • Crockpot Gravy Chicken
    • Crockpot Hawaiian BBQ Chicken
    • Crock Pot Chicken Soup

    Ingredients For Crockpot Chicken And Stuffing Recipe

    • Chicken Breasts: A lean source of protein that cooks tender in the crockpot.
    • Stuffing Mix: Adds a flavorful, herby base to the dish.
    • Cream of Chicken Soup: Provides a creamy texture and rich flavor.
    • Sour Cream: Balances the flavors and adds a slight tang.
    • Water: Keeps the chicken moist and ensures the stuffing is fully cooked.
    • Feel free to add salt and pepper to taste.

    How To Make Crock Pot Chicken And Stuffing

    Start by placing the boneless skinless chicken breasts at the bottom of the crockpot and adding water. Next, pour in the dry stuffing mix, creating an even layer over the chicken.

    In a separate bowl, mix the cream of chicken soup with the sour cream until well combined. Spread this mixture over the stuffing, ensuring it covers all areas. This helps keep the stuffing from drying out during cooking.

    Set your crockpot to cook on low for about four hours. At the three-and-a-half-hour mark, give the stuffing and soup mixture a good stir to make sure the stuffing is fully moistened. Cover again and continue cooking for the remaining 30 minutes.

    Tips For Making Chicken And Stuffing Crockpot Casserole

    Tip 1: Low-Fat Options: I used low-fat cream of chicken soup and light sour cream, and they didn't affect the taste.
    Tip 2: Stirring: Stirring at the 3.5-hour mark helps evenly distribute moisture and prevent dry spots in the stuffing.

    FAQs For Crockpot Chicken

    How do I store leftover crockpot chicken and stuffing?

    Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will last for up to three days. To reheat, simply microwave or warm in the oven until heated through.

    Can I use chicken thighs instead of breasts in the crockpot?

    Yes, chicken thighs can be used and will add a richer flavor. Just adjust the cooking time, as thighs may cook a bit faster.

    What sides go well with slow cooker chicken and stuffing?

    I like to serve this with steamed vegetables or a side salad. They add some good-for-you nutrients and are great accompaniments to this crockpot chicken recipe.

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 ½ pounds chicken breasts defrosted
    • 6 stuffing mix
    • 10.5 oz cream of chicken soup
    • ½ cup sour cream light sour cream is a great option
    • ½ cup wate

    Instructions
     

    • Start by adding your chicken breasts to the crockpot and pour in ½ cup of water.
    • Next, sprinkle the box of stuffing evenly over the chicken.
    • In a separate bowl, mix together the cream of chicken soup and sour cream until well combined.
    • Pour the creamy mixture over the stuffing in the crockpot, using a spoon to spread it out. This will help keep the stuffing nice and moist while it cooks!
    • Cook on low for 4 hours.
    • About 30 minutes before it's done (around the 3.5-hour mark), open up the crockpot and give the stuffing and soup a gentle stir to ensure everything is well moistened.
    • Cover it back up and let it cook for the remaining 30 minutes.

    Notes

    •  Using low-fat cream of chicken soup and light sour cream keeps the flavor without all the extra fat.
    • Giving it a stir around the 3.5-hour mark helps spread the moisture evenly and avoids any dry spots in the stuffing.
