CROCK POT CHICKEN AND GRAVY
This slow cooker meal is one of my favorites because it is one of those meals where you pretty much just pop all the ingredients in the crock pot, put the lid on, set it and go. It’s also one of those meals my whole family likes and it doesn’t take a lot of ingredients. This is definitely up there in favorites along with my CROCK POT PORK CHOPS AND GRAVY!

WHAT DO I SERVE WITH CROCK POT CHICKEN & GRAVY?
My favorite way to serve this is over rice but my hubby likes it MILLION DOLLAR MASHED POTATOES or some HONEY GLAZED SWEET POTATOES. Either way, it is scrumptious!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
chicken gravy mix
cream of chicken soup
water
boneless, skinless chicken breasts
garlic powder, salt & black pepper
sour cream
rice, mashed potatoes or noodles, for serving
STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS TO MAKE CROCK POT CHICKEN AND GRAVY:
Season chicken breasts with garlic powder, black pepper and just a tad bit of salt on both sides. Note: the chicken gravy and cream of chicken soup already have salt in them so don’t go overboard on seasoning with salt (about a teaspoon should work.)
In your slow cooker, whisk together the gravy packets, cream of chicken soup, and water. I just whisk until it is mostly smooth.
Add the seasoned chicken breasts.
Be sure to get them covered in gravy.
Cover and cook on low for about 6-8 hours.
Once cooked, break chicken up into chunks using a fork.
Stir in sour cream (if using.) Note: I think the sour cream adds a great creaminess to this so I definitely recommend adding it in! Then serve over rice, mashed potatoes or noodles.
Enjoy!

Notes
The chicken gravy and cream of chicken soup already have salt in them so don't go overboard on seasoning with salt (about a teaspoon should work).
Sour cream adds a great creaminess to this so I definitely recommend adding it in! Serve over rice, mashed potatoes or noodles.

Jessica says
Hello! I absolutely LOVE this recipe. However I just received an Instapot for Xmas and was wondering if you or anyone else has tried making it that way? I’m worried about how to covert the time and all that.
Karine says
I too would love to know if an instant pot would work…
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hi Karine – I honestly have not tried it yet. It should definitely work. You just may need to add a little bit of water to ensure that it comes up to pressure.
Angela says
I just wanted to add that i misread the recipe and mixed the sour cream in from the start and it turns out really well too!
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
So glad to hear that Angela. Thank you for commenting!
Latrissa says
Can this be made in the instant pot? How long? I don’t like certain meat textures in the crockpot.
Stephanie says
Absolutely wonderful!!! EASY and delicious! Thank you for sharing!!
Hope says
Very, very good,, my picky son even liked it, we had it over mashed potatoes. I had something like this in elementary/ middle school in Michigan for lunch and Was so happy to find this recipe ❤️ Thank you for sharing!
Julie says
Absolutely wonderful. I seasoned the chicken breast with the garlic and Mrs. Dash. I didn’t use the 2 cups of water instead I did 2 cups of my own chicken stock. Worth it to use chicken stock instead of water – really brings out the chicken taste. My chicken gravy was low sodium too. I topped this over mashed potatoes that I also made using my chicken stock. Great recipe!
Iris says
Can i cook this om high for 3-4 hrs instead of low 6-8hrs?
teri says
Was wondering the same thing.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Yes, you can. 🙂
Christina says
Do you actually make the chicken gravy before you mix it in the dish? Or just use the powder in the mix?
Ashleigh says
Delicious. So simple. My husband likes it and my son ate it, which is not easy to find. I don’t use any low sodium ingredients, although I know I should. I add my personal kitchen basics, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Beau Monde. Awesome!
Jennifer says
I made this and it turned out very soupy and watery not gravy like at all
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hi Jennifer! I am so sorry to hear that!! It should have been creamy with the addition of the sour cream. I can’t say what might’ve happened since I wasn’t there with you but I can say that something must have happened.
Betsy Castle says
How would this work if the recipe was doubled? Would time be affected? How well does it work on the “keep warm” function for a few hours once cooking is done?
Vicki Meredith says
Couldn’t you just add noodles to it after it’s done? Like for chicken and noodles.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
You could. Just don’t overfill with noodles. 🙂
Judy Scholl says
I made this tonight served it with mash potatoes green peas and carrots it was a hit. I only changed two things I used chicken broth and roasted gravy mix. I live in Louisiana and this is comfort food the gravy was smooth as silk. This is a keeper thanks for a wonderful recipe
Deborah Pountney says
Excellent!!! I won’t be looking for another shredded chicken and gravy recipe. Only thing I didn’t add was the salt to the chicken because I wasn’t certain if this would be salty. Turned out perfect! I previously made a different shredded chicken recipe that was way too salty. I’m glad you posted this 1! This went great with stuffing! Thank you
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hi Deborah! Thanks so much for coming back to leave such a wonderful review. Love hearing how much you enjoyed it!
Deborah Pountney says
You’re welcome. After making a different chicken & gravey recipe that was too salty I didn’t think I would find a good one that was made with packet chicken gravey & soup. I was Happily surprised! ( the other recipe used chicken broth). This was also very easy & didn’t take up a lot of time to make. Thankyou!!!😁
Kelly says
Can you use frozen chicken breasts?
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
That’s a good question! I don’t see why not!
Kelly says
I did use frozen chicken breasts. Turned out great!
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Oh awesome! Thank you for letting me know!
Judy says
What can be used instead of sour cream?
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Hmmmm…softened cream cheese or maybe greek yogurt?
Jennifer says
This was a great hit at the dinner table for my family. Super simple and basically ready when I walked in the door. Thanks so much for a wonderful dinner.
Brandie @ The Country Cook says
Absolutely love hearing that Jennifer! Thank you for taking the time to come back and let me know!!
Ben says
I love this in the Crockpot. Is there an instant pot method besides the slow cooker function.
I have a few ideas, but I’m not in the mood to mess up dinner tonight.
