Scale
Chicken
- 3 to 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Sauce
- 1 (10.5-oz) can Unsalted Cream of Chicken Soup
- 2 (0.87-oz) envelopes chicken gravy mix (dry)
- 1/2 cup water or chicken broth (optional)
To Serve
- Hot steamed rice
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker and season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
- Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the can of unsalted cream of chicken soup, the two envelopes of dry chicken gravy mix, and the optional 1/2 cup of water or chicken broth until smooth.
- Combine in Slow Cooker: Pour the soup and gravy mixture evenly over the chicken in the crockpot.
- Cook: Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW heat for 4 to 6 hours. If using frozen chicken breasts, cook closer to 6 hours to ensure thorough cooking.
- Shred Chicken: Before serving, use forks to break apart the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and mix them into the gravy.
- Serve: Spoon the chicken and gravy over hot steamed rice and enjoy your comforting meal.
Notes
- Do NOT make the gravy separately; only use the dry gravy mix directly in the crockpot.
- Do NOT add water directly to the soup; use the soup straight from the can.
- You can substitute chicken thighs or tenderloins for the chicken breasts.
- Frozen chicken breasts can be used; increase cooking time to the higher end if frozen.
- Optional: add frozen vegetables to the crockpot mixture for a complete meal.
