Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Seasonings

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Gravy Mixture

  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 packet chicken gravy mix
  • 1 cup chicken broth

Finishing Touch

  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • Chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Slow Cooker: Lightly grease the slow cooker insert if desired and place the chicken breasts at the bottom to form an even layer.
  2. Season the Chicken: Sprinkle salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder evenly over the chicken breasts to ensure each piece is well-flavored.
  3. Mix the Gravy: In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, chicken gravy mix, and chicken broth. Stir until you have a smooth, well-blended gravy mixture.
  4. Pour and Cook: Pour the prepared gravy evenly over the seasoned chicken in the slow cooker. Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low heat for 6–7 hours or on high heat for 3–4 hours until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
  5. Add the Sour Cream: Once cooking is complete, remove the slow cooker lid and stir in the sour cream thoroughly until the gravy becomes smooth and creamy.
  6. Shred or Serve Whole: Choose to shred the chicken with two forks for a rustic texture that blends well with the gravy, or leave the breasts whole for a more elegant presentation.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top as a bright garnish and serve the creamy chicken and gravy warm with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes or rice.

Notes

  • You can substitute chicken thighs for breasts for juicier results.
  • Adding vegetables like mushrooms or carrots into the slow cooker can add extra flavor and nutrition.
  • If the gravy is too thick after cooking, stir in a little extra chicken broth to reach desired consistency.
  • Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheat nicely on the stovetop or microwave.
