Ingredients

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
  • 1/2 cup water or chicken broth (optional)

Serving

  • Hot steamed rice, for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Place the boneless skinless chicken breasts in the slow cooker. Season with salt and pepper to taste, if desired, to enhance the flavors.
  2. Mix the sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the unsalted cream of chicken soup, chicken gravy mix packets, and the optional 1/2 cup of water or chicken broth until smooth and well combined.
  3. Combine and cook: Pour the soup and gravy mixture over the chicken breasts in the crockpot. Cover with the lid and cook on LOW heat for 4 to 6 hours, allowing the chicken to become tender and infused with the creamy gravy flavors.
  4. Shred the chicken: Before serving, use two forks or tongs to break the cooked chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, mixing them gently with the gravy in the crockpot.
  5. Serve: Spoon the shredded chicken and gravy over hot steamed rice, making sure to ladle plenty of sauce for a comforting, satisfying meal.

Notes

  • You can substitute water with chicken broth for a richer flavor.
  • Adjust salt and pepper according to your taste preferences but remember the gravy mix and soup may contain some sodium.
  • If you prefer a thicker gravy, remove the lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow the sauce to reduce slightly.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • This recipe is freezer-friendly; freeze cooked chicken and gravy separately from rice for up to 2 months.
