Crockpot Chicken And Gravy Recipe Notes
Ingredient Notes
Seasoning: I keep the seasoning simple in this dish. If you want to add another level of flavor, thyme is nice in the gravy. Don’t add any salt because the soup and broth already contain it.
Soup: Use the low sodium version so the gravy doesn’t get too salty.
Gravy Packets: This is also delicious made with brown gravy mix in place of the chicken gravy
Storing Tips: This will last 3-4 days in the refrigerator. Just keep it in an airtight container.
Freezing:Â Yes you can freeze this in an airtight container for 4 months.
How To Make Crockpot Chicken And Gravy
Just add the soup, gravy packets, water, pepper, and garlic powder to the crockpot and whisk until smooth. Nestle the chicken pieces in the sauce.
Cook until tender then shred. Stir in sour cream and serve!
What To Serve With Crockpot Chicken And Gravy
Of course, you need something to sop up the yummy creamy gravy so rice, mashed potatoes or homemade Bisquick biscuits are always a must. My grandma used to serve this with Southern green beans or Arkansas green beans. They’re always a hit and go fabulously with this. A scoop of Paula Deen corn casserole on the plate with this is heaven!

My son is a very very picky eater, this is one of his favorites now. Thank you so much for this recipe
Yaay! That’s a winner 🙂 Thank you so much Anne
Do you have to cook the chicken breasts a lil bit before putting in the crock pot?
Hi, Courtney! No need. Just place the chicken in the crockpot 🙂
The nutrition information can’t be right. One serving is about 1/2 pound of chicken breast. A 4 oz cooked chicken breast has 25 grams of protein, so a serving of this should be closer to 50 grams of protein, allowing for cooking.
Hi, Colleen. Thanks for correcting me. I ran the nutrition facts again, it’s now correct. Thanks again!
Ok to use chicken broth instead of the water?
Hi, Linda. Hmmm, it may be too salty. I suggest using low sodium or unsalted chicken broth.
The narrative mentions chicken broth but it’s not listed as an ingredient. Wanted to double check!
Hi Amy! Ooops, sorry that was just a typo. 🙂
