Ingredients

  • 1 (10-ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 2 (0.87-ounce) packets dry chicken gravy mix
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4 (about 2 pounds) boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

Serve With:

  • mashed potatoes, rice, noodles, or a thick slice of toast

Garnish:

  • 1-2 tablespoons parsley, chopped

Instructions

  • Add the first 5 ingredients to the crockpot and stir until smooth.
  • Add the chicken breasts (4) and flip the chicken over in the sauce to coat.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours or until chicken is fork tender.
  • Remove the chicken from the crock pot and shred with 2 forks.
  • Stir in the sour cream (1/2 cup) until the mixture is smooth and add the shredded chicken back to the crockpot. Cover, set on keep warm, and allow to sit for about 10 minutes. Gravy will thicken as it sits.
  • Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, noodles, or a thick slice of toast. Garnish with parsley (1-2 tablespoons) and serve.

Notes

  1. Stir the gravy base well at the start. Making sure everything is smooth before the chicken goes in gives you the best final texture.
  2. Don’t overcook the chicken if your slow cooker runs hot. Chicken breasts can go from tender to dry if they cook too long, so start checking once they’re easy to shred.
  3. Add the sour cream off the highest heat. This helps it blend in smoothly and keeps the gravy from looking separated.
  4. Let the chicken soak in the gravy after shredding. That extra rest on warm gives the shredded chicken time to absorb more flavor.
  5. Serve it with something that catches the gravy. Mashed potatoes, rice, noodles, or toast turn this into a full comfort-food meal.
