It’s a meal with all the flavors of Thanksgiving but none of the effort.
How To Make
To make Crock Pot Chicken and Stuffing with Green Beans, season 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts with salt and pepper and place them in a lightly greased 6-quart slow cooker. Pour a box of dry stovetop stuffing (just the mix- DO NOT add anything to it) on top of the chicken.
In a bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of sour cream, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1/3 cup water, and a can of condensed cream of chicken soup. Spread the mixture on top of the dry stuffing. If you wish, you can leave out the mayonnaise and add 3/4 cup sour cream, but I like the way the combo of the two works together.
Scatter a bag of frozen green beans on top and season them with salt and pepper. Cook on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours and it’s ready to dish up. Couldn’t be easier!
Equipment Needed
A 6-quart slow cooker is the perfect size for this recipe. I use a Hamilton Beach Set & Forget 6-Quart Programmable Slow Cooker. It is reasonably priced and holds up well. I have used mine countless times and it’s still going strong.
Cooking Time
Different slow cookers cook at different rates and some get much hotter than others, especially newer models. The cooking time for this recipe can vary so use it as an estimate. It can take from 3 to 4 1/2 hours on HIGH and around 6 hours on LOW. Chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperture of 165 degrees.
Storage
Leftovers will keep for 4 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator and can be reheated in a microwave.

Can you use fresh green beans instead of frozen?
This is the best chicken crockpot dinner ever! This is so perfect in winter weather as it even warms your soul. Never any leftovers with this. I do slip more veggies in it – Cauliflower Rice makes it all the yummier and nobody knows it’s in there.Julie
Turned out amazing will definitely make agsin and soon !!!
Thanks
My family absolutely loved this recipe! It had so much flavor!
Do you add stuffing seasoning mix from the Stove Top box?
Yes.
I want to use frozen chicken breast how long will I have to cook it for with frozen chicken breast?
I’ve made this recipe a couple times now and it is delicious. I do add some chicken broth (maybe 1/2 cup) about 2 hours in to add a little moisture. Otherwise I follow recipe exactly. I’ve also swapped frozen broccoli for the green beans. Delicious either way!
Definitely recommend the extra chicken broth for additional moisture! Yummy & easy recipe!! Even the lucky hubby likes it!👍🏼
This recipe was like Thanksgiving in a crock! Wow! Delicious! I don’t usually post ratings but I read someone’s bad rating and thought, wow. They must have totally screwed something up because this recipe was easy and delicious. Cranberry sauce on the side and you’ll think you’re at Grandma’s house!
I use cream of mushroom soup, it’s amazing! 😋🤤
Made this just as written but added about half a cup of dried cranberries to the soup mixture. Mine was probably done at 3 hours so when I went 4, it was dry. But WOW, the flavor!! I’ll be making this one often. Really great recipe.
My kids and I loved this! I followed the instructions, except using 14oz can of green beans. The chicken and stuffing was moist. My only question is how did you get the presentation so nice? By the time I shredded the chicken and mixed in the soup mixture, it was all mixed together. It may not have looked pretty plated but it was good! A keeper!
My husband and I loved this recipe. We’re football fanatics so a slow cooker recipe prepared before the first kick-off is a necessity for Sunday viewing. We tried this recipe last Sunday and were so very pleased with it. I’m having physical problems which make being on my feet for extended times very uncomfortable. So, I prepared dicing and precooking Sat. night, taking breaks as needed. I doubled the recipe and froze half in freeze-defrost-microwave containers. Looking to enjoying their delicious juiciness another Sunday. Thank you for this excellent recipe.
