PERFECT DINNER - EASY SLOW COOKER CHICKEN & GRAVY RECIPE
One of the BEST week night dinner recipes hands down 🙌 So easy and my kids ALWAYS eat it with no problems, some times they even ask for seconds 😉 Everything you will need is listed at the end of the video- I only used 2 chicken breasts and it made plenty for my family of four. We ate it over rice but you can also use mashed potatoes. It’s so good! #food #Recipe
Using a slow cooker to prepare chicken with rich gravy is one of my favorite easy meal solutions, especially on hectic weeknights when I want dinner ready without standing over the stove. What I love about this recipe is its simplicity—you just place chicken breasts (even frozen works great) into the slow cooker with chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, butter, salt, and pepper. Then you let it cook on high for about three hours. The best part? You come back halfway through to shred the chicken right in the pot, which helps it soak up all the delicious flavors. When serving, I usually put it over steamed rice, but mashed potatoes are an excellent alternative if you want a creamier base. My kids absolutely love this dish; they often ask for seconds, which is always a good sign! Sometimes I add a quick side salad or steamed vegetables to round out the meal without adding much prep time. If you want a thicker gravy, I recommend slightly reducing the chicken broth amount. Alternatively, you can lift the slow cooker lid for the last 20 minutes to let some liquid evaporate. Using an Instant Pot with a slow cooker function works well too, making the process convenient. This recipe is very forgiving and can be customized with herbs like thyme or rosemary for an extra flavor boost. Overall, this chicken and gravy dish has become a staple in my household because it’s both comforting and simple. It’s perfect for anyone looking for a reliable go-to slow cooker recipe that's family friendly and hassle-free.
