I love that this dish is basically a meal all in one! Usually, I serve it with cranberry relish or a small side salad if I feel like we need a little something extra. To me, I feel like I can eat an easier version of Thanksgiving dinner all year long!

Chicken Stuffing Casserole: FAQs
Any seasonings you love! My favorite seasoning combo is: 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, 1/4 teaspoon dried sage, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder. I usually rub this mixture all over the chicken, coating both sides.
Since this is a slow cooker recipe, it really is made ahead. Start this in the morning and dinner will be ready when you come home!
I usually put them on a microwave-safe place and cover it. Microwave until heated through.

This sounds really good but I don’t like sour cream or creamcheese in a recipe. Could you use a cream soup or evaporated milk? Please send me an email with your answer.
Thank you for the question, Helen! I would probably use part of another can of cream of mushroom soup in place of the sour cream.
Is the stuffing pre cooked before going into the crockpot?
No. You combine the dry stuffing mix in Step 3 with the chicken broth and gravy. Hope this helps!
My husband us allergic to cream cheese – what else would your recommend?
Hi Lynn! There is no cream cheese in this recipe. However, there is sour cream – and if he is allergic to that, I would suggest using a bit more of the cream of mushroom soup. I hope that helps!
Looks like a cool recipe! Would it be possible to do this using an Instant Pot?
I’m sure you can – I’ve never done it though to give you guidance or instructions.
Can this be made with shredded or small chunks of chicken? Explain more about the turkey or chicken flavored stuffing. Is that something like a pepperidge farm or stove top stuffing mix or is it just the seasoned bread cubes?
Can you use can green beans? Instead frozen?
Yes.
How about fresh green beans versus frozen?
Followed the recipe to the T, absolutely delicious!! Tastes like Thanksgiving/Christmas dinner in a pot. Next time I would add another bag of frozen green beans. Thank you!!
Do you add the seasoning that is in the box of stuffing?
Yes, you can.
Whole family loved this! I added a can of drained corn with the green beans, taste great and added a “pop” of color too!
This was yummy and I will def make again. The only change that I will make is to add additional broth in the bottom with the chicken as it came out a little dry. Mind you, I am above 6000 feet which does affect some recipies.
Made this the other night and the whole family loved it! They requested it again tonight! It’s In the crock pot right now. It takes a great recipe to make all 5 kids happy!
I came across this recipe and thought it would be perfect for my family, but I didn’t have all the ingredients. So I made this using one box of stove top and one box of rice a roni long grain and wild rice (added extra water because of this). Also subbed cream of chicken for cream of mushroom and used a half a soup can of milk instead of sour cream. I also added two 12oz bags of frozen green beans. Delish!! I did add the extra seasoning as stated in the blog for seasoning the chicken.
This receipe was really that good. My slow cooker broke down not long before I found this receipe. I followed receipe exactly. Stacked everything in my copper deep pan and covered , put in oven for abt 3 hours or so. It did turn out very well.
Can you use rotisserie chicken?
Can I use chicken thighs instead of breast, if so how much? This sounds so good.
Do you stir it at any time during the cooking process?
Nope. Just let it cook, no stirring necessary.
Just wondering if you have tried the recipe without thawing the chicken out first
I have not. I’m not sure I would try it with frozen chicken since it might not thaw or cook completely with this recipe.
