This 3-ingredient slow cooker chicken and stuffing is one of those back-pocket recipes I lean on during extra busy weeks—think late work meetings, kids’ activities, or those days when you’re just done by 3 p.m. It’s cozy, comforting, and tastes like a shortcut version of a Sunday dinner without actually spending your Sunday in the kitchen. The idea is super simple: tender chicken, a box of stuffing mix, and creamy soup all hang out in the slow cooker and transform into a hearty, no-fuss meal. It’s the kind of dish you throw together in the morning in under 10 minutes and come home to a house that smells like you’ve been cooking all day. If you love classic Midwestern potluck flavors, this is absolutely one to keep in your regular rotation.
This slow cooker chicken and stuffing is pretty much begging for simple, cozy sides. I like to spoon it over steamed green beans or a side of roasted broccoli to balance out the richness. Mashed potatoes or buttered egg noodles are great if you want to stretch the meal a bit further or feed a hungry crowd. On really busy nights, I’ll just add a simple side salad from a bag mix and call it done. If you’re planning ahead for the week, pack leftovers with some microwave-steamed veggies or a quick coleslaw—everything reheats really well and makes an easy lunch that feels more like comfort food than leftovers.
