Description

This Crock Pot Chicken and Stuffing with Green Beans is a comforting, easy-to-make slow cooker meal perfect for busy weeknights. Tender chicken breasts are layered over fresh green beans and topped with a seasoned stuffing mix, then smothered in a creamy sauce made from condensed cream of chicken soup and chicken broth. Slow-cooked to perfection, the dish combines savory flavors with a satisfying texture, delivering a homey, hearty dinner with minimal prep and cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale

Protein and Vegetables

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 12 oz fresh green beans, rinsed and trimmed (or frozen green beans, added halfway through cooking)

Stuffing Mix and Seasonings

  • 6 oz stuffing mix
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder

Sauce

  • 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 3 tbsp butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Rinse and trim fresh green beans if using. Gather chicken breasts and seasonings. In a bowl, combine the stuffing mix with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to evenly distribute the flavors.
  2. Layer the Crock Pot: Spray the slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking. Spread the green beans evenly across the bottom of the crock pot as the vegetable base. Arrange the chicken breasts on top of the green beans, then sprinkle the seasoned stuffing mix evenly over the chicken.
  3. Mix the Sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, melted butter, and any remaining seasoning. Pour this creamy mixture evenly over the layered ingredients in the crock pot, making sure the stuffing gets moist but not overly soggy.
  4. Cook Low and Slow: Cover the crock pot and cook on the low setting for 4 to 6 hours. During this time, the chicken will become tender and juicy, the stuffing will soak up the savory juices, and the green beans will remain crisp-tender.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: When cooking is complete, gently fluff the stuffing around the chicken and green beans. Serve the dish warm, optionally garnished with fresh herbs such as parsley or chives for added color and flavor.

Notes

  • If using frozen green beans, add them halfway through the cooking time to prevent overcooking.
  • You can substitute the cream of chicken soup with a homemade cream sauce for a fresher taste.
  • For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free stuffing mix and verify that the condensed soup is gluten-free.
  • Adding fresh herbs at the end brightens the dish and adds aroma.
  • This recipe freezes well; store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
