Description

This Crockpot Chicken and Gravy recipe offers a deliciously easy and comforting meal where tender chicken breasts slow-cooked in a rich, creamy gravy make the perfect hearty dinner. Ideal for busy weeknights, it pairs wonderfully with rice or mashed potatoes and can be customized with additional herbs or aromatics.

Ingredients

Chicken

  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts (approximately 1.5 lbs)

Gravy Sauce

  • 1 packet ranch dressing mix (1 oz)
  • 1 packet brown gravy mix (1 oz)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup (10.5 oz)
  • ½ cup sour cream

Seasonings and Garnish

  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • Chopped parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crockpot: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts evenly in the crockpot to form the base of your dish.
  2. Make the Gravy Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine ranch dressing mix, brown gravy mix, chicken broth, and cream of chicken soup. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture becomes smooth and well blended.
  3. Combine Chicken and Gravy: Pour the prepared gravy mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, making sure each piece is well coated with the sauce.
  4. Cook the Chicken: Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 6 hours, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and tender enough to shred easily.
  5. Shred Chicken: Using two forks, shred the chicken directly in the crockpot, mixing it into the flavorful gravy.
  6. Finish the Sauce: Stir in the sour cream thoroughly to create a creamy texture, then season with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
  7. Serve and Garnish: Plate the shredded chicken and gravy over your choice of rice or mashed potatoes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness.

Notes

  • For enhanced flavor, try adding chopped onions or garlic to the crockpot before cooking.
  • This dish freezes well, making it perfect for batch cooking and storing leftovers.
  • Adjust seasoning according to your taste; fresh or dried herbs like thyme or rosemary can be added for extra depth.
