Ingredients
Scale
Chicken
- 3 to 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper, to taste (optional)
Sauce
- 1 can (10.5 oz) unsalted cream of chicken soup
- 2 packets (0.87 oz each) chicken gravy mix
- 1/2 cup water or chicken broth (optional)
To Serve
- Hot cooked rice
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker. Season with salt and pepper to taste, if desired.
- Prepare and Pour the Sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of chicken soup, chicken gravy mix, and water or chicken broth (if using) until well combined. Pour this mixture over the seasoned chicken in the slow cooker.
- Cook the Chicken: Cover the slow cooker with the lid and set it to cook on LOW heat for 4-6 hours. This slow cooking method will make the chicken tender and flavorful.
- Final Preparation: Once the chicken is fully cooked, use a fork or spoon to break the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. This makes it easier to serve and eat.
- Serve: Serve the bite-sized, tender chicken pieces over hot steamed rice. Enjoy this comforting and easy meal!
Notes
- You can substitute water with chicken broth for richer flavor.
- Season chicken lightly as the gravy mix and soup already provide salt and seasoning.
- For thicker gravy, cook uncovered for the last 30 minutes if necessary.
- This dish pairs well with steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently.
