Slow Cooker Chicken and Gravy have tender chicken breasts in a wonderful gravy, great over mashed potatoes and white bread.

I’m always looking for an easy slow cooker recipe and this one couldn’t be easier and it’s crowd-pleasing. This is a perfect recipe to transform boring chicken breasts. Also, try my slow cooker smothered chicken, or slow cooker chicken piccata recipes.

If you love comfort food, then you will love this Slow Cooker and Gravy. This recipe uses chicken breasts which turn out very juicy in the gravy that they are cooked in. This recipe is a staple in our house; my daughter requests this meal often along with mashed potatoes and corn.

How to make Slow Cooker Chicken and Gravy:

You will need these ingredients:

• Boneless skinless chicken breasts
• Chicken gravy packets
• Cream of chicken soup
• Pepper
• Water

Directions:

• In a small bowl add the gravy packets, cream of chicken soup, water and pepper. Whisk until smooth.
• Add the chicken breasts to the slow cooker. Pour over the gravy.
• Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4 hours.
• Shred the chicken and serve with desired sides.

How to shred the chicken:

No fancy tools are needed to shred the chicken for this recipe. I use 2 forks and shred up the chicken right in the slow cooker with the gravy.

Chicken and gravy variations:

Add one or more of these ingredients to the gravy at the beginning of the cook time for a fun twist:

• Herbs such as dried thyme or oregano
• Sliced mushrooms
• Sliced onions
• Cooked bacon

My gravy is thin, how do I thicken it?

If you add veggies to the gravy or the chicken breasts are extra juicy you may need to thicken the gravy. Here is my method:

• 2 Tbsp. cold water
• 2 Tbsp. cornstarch

After the cooking time is up. In a small bowl combine the water and cornstarch. Add to gravy and shredded chicken. Add the lid back on and let cook for 10 minutes or until thickened.

What to serve with Chicken and Gravy:

Try one or more of these options along with the chicken and gravy:

• Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes
• White bread
• Canned or fresh corn
• Steamed green vegetables
• Stuffing – homemade slow cooker stuffing or Stove-top brand
• Slow Cooker Baked potatoes
