AN EASY FAMILY-FAVORITE CROCK POT RECIPE

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 we really like it with my Million Dollar Mashed Potatoes or some Honey Glazed Sweet Potatoes and some Butter Swim Biscuits. Either way, it is scrumptious!

INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE)

  • chicken gravy mix
  • cream of chicken soup
  • water
  • boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • garlic powder, salt and black pepper
  • sour cream
  • rice, mashed potatoes or noodles, for serving
ingredients needed: boneless, skinless chicken breasts, chicken gravy mix packets, cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, black pepper, water.

HOW 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.

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! Plain Greek yogurt can be substituted for the sour cream.
  • Serve over rice, mashed potatoes or noodles.

    I made this last night for dinner in my Instant Pot. It turned out great. My chicken breasts were frozen and fairly large so I set the cook time to 30 minutes.
    I forgot to add the sour cream after cooking…but my family still liked it. I served it over rice.

    Made this today, came out delicious! Thank you!
    The only thing I didn’t use was sour cream (truth be told, I forgot to buy it) and I didn’t add salt (I rarely cook with salt, that’s just the way I grew up & been taught.

    My picky eater enjoyed it.

    Thank you!!

  3. I made this recipe Sunday and it came out great! I had no idea what I was going to cook so I’m glad I came across your recipe. You have a new food blogger friend in me!

    I made this with milk instead of water. I also added chopped onion, one cup of rice, and an extra cup of water. In my opinion, the rice is even better this way since it absorbs the gravy and milk. So yummy!

  5. I want to just serve chicken breasts (not shred it up) when would I add the sour cream? Can I Mix it in when I whisk all the other ingredients together. Going to cook this tomorrow. Sounds delicious. Thanks.

    This isn’t my favorite chicken and rice recipe and it’s so easy, reminds me of how my mom used to make it. I add about a 4oz (drained) jar of sliced mushrooms. I’m not even a mushroom fan, but for some reason it’s perfect with this. Also, I like a little spice so I top mine with a few jalapeños:)

    Just a quick question. If using noodles, would you recommend putting them in the same pot with the chicken and gravy or make noodles separately?

    1. Hi Ceir, I wouldn’t cook them in the same pot as the chicken and gravy because there just isn’t enough liquid. So I would cook them separately until they are tender. Then, if you want, you can stir the cooked noodles in with the chicken mixture in the crock pot. 🙂

  8. I only have 1 packet if gravy and wondered if that would still be ok or if I should try to substitute with something? Looks like a great recipe! Will be serving it over mini waffles. Thanks!

    Hello,

    I have made this recipe twice and love it! I’m running short on time and wanted to know if I could cook on high for 4 hours instead of the low for 8?

    This recipe sounds so good. Sadly i don’t have a Slow Cooker anymore (do plan on buying another one) . So i thought about making this on the stove. Think i’m just going to mix the gravy mix , soup and water in medium saucepan and when that is heated, instead of using chicken breasts, might just buy a cooked roast chicken, shred the meat and add it to the sauce. Maybe add some cooked chopped bacon and have it over pasta.

    This is my go to recipe for chicken and biscuits. I add a bag of mixed veggies an hour before it’s done, tastes so good! Thank you for sharing!
