This Cheesy Chicken and Vegetables recipe is my new favorite crock pot slow cooker recipe!
It is creamy and cheesy and packed full of flavor.
This cheesy chicken and vegetables recipe only has 5 ingredients.
The entire family loved it so much that next time I make it I am doubling the recipe so there is enough so there left overs.
The crock pot was scraped clean!
Ingredients
- 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into bite-size pieces
- 2 teaspoons Lawry's seasoned salt
- 16-ounce bag frozen broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots thawed and drained if needed.
- one can cream of celery soup
- 2 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
How to make Cheesy Chicken Vegetables
- Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces 1 ½ to 2 inches. Sprinkle with the seasoned salt and set aside.
- Place the vegetables, cream soup, ground pepper and 2 cups of the shredded cheese into the crock pot. Mix well with a large spoon to combine.
- Add the cubed chicken to the crock pot and stir the chicken in.
- Slow cook in a 4-quart crock pot on low for 2 to 3 hours or until the chicken is cooked thoroughly.
- Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top and continue cooking until the cheese is melted.
- Serve over a bed of cooked long grain white rice.
- Makes 4 servings.
Recipe Expert Tips
- Chicken: you can substitute boneless skinless chicken thighs for the boneless white meat chicken.
- Frozen vegetables: I love the broccoli, cauliflower and carrot mix but you can use another type of frozen broccoli and cauliflower vegetable mix or a yellow squash vegetable mix.
- Cream soup: cream of chicken or cream of mushroom soup can be used instead of the cream of celery soup.
- Cooking method: This recipe can also be cooked in a baking dish in the oven. Precook the cubed chicken in a pot of boiling water before mixing it with the other ingredients. Bake at 375 F. degrees in a baking dish covered with aluminum foil for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 15 to 30 minutes or until bubbling.
- Cooking time: cubed chicken cooks very quickly in a slow cooker. The cooking time will depend on how large you cube the chicken. You could also leave the chicken pieces whole and shred the poultry before serving. Do not over cook or the chicken will be dry.

I'm always looking for new Crock-Pot recipes, and this sure looks like a winner 🙂 It'll be what's for dinner this weekend!! Thanks for sharing! I was wondering how Fresh, rather than Frozen Veggies would work in this delightful dish. My husband's gonna love this 🙂

Elizabeth
Thanks so much! Fresh vegetables would work also but it may take longer to cook since the frozen vegetables are partially cooked. Enjoy the recipe!
Corey
Is the chicken supposed to be cooked before putting in the crockpot?
Arlene Mobley
Hi, Corey, the chicken is uncooked in this recipe.
