Can I use frozen chicken?

Yes! That’s one reason this Crock Pot Chicken and Stuffing Dinner is so practical. Just add about 30 extra minutes to the cooking time.

Can I make it ahead of time?

Can I freeze leftovers?

Yes, though the stuffing texture may soften slightly after thawing. It will still taste delicious.

Can I substitute the cream of chicken soup?

You can use cream of mushroom or cream of celery. The flavor will change slightly but still be comforting and creamy.

Instructions

Spray the slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
Place chicken breasts in the bottom of the Crock Pot.
In a medium bowl, whisk together cream of chicken soup, milk, chicken broth, and sour cream until smooth.
Pour the mixture evenly over the chicken.
Sprinkle stuffing mix evenly on top. Gently press down with a fork.
Add frozen peas or vegetables if using. Sprinkle with black pepper, garlic powder, and thyme.
Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until chicken reaches 165°F and stuffing is fluffy.
Fluff stuffing before serving. For a crispy top, broil for 2–3 minutes if desired.

Notes

Frozen chicken is safe to use; simply increase cooking time by 30 minutes.

For extra creaminess, use whole milk instead of water.

Want crispy stuffing? Broil for a few minutes before serving.

Leftovers store well in the refrigerator for 3–4 days.

Add sautéed onions or mushrooms for extra flavor.
