One of Matt’s favorite dinners is chicken and gravy over mashed potatoes. I only made it occasionally because it was time consuming and not something I could do quickly on a busy night. Then I decided to try and make it in the crockpot. My first couple of attempts were….not great. But I kept working on it and finally found a combination that is perfect.
Ingredients:
3-4 chicken breasts (mine were frozen)
1 pkt Pioneer Brand Country Gravy (2.75oz)
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 cup water
1 cup milk
1/4 tsp pepper
Directions:
1. Combine gravy packet, soup, water, milk, and pepper in bottom of crockpot.
2. Add chicken breasts and coat with gravy mixture.
3. Cook on Low for 8 hours or High for 4 hours.
4. Shred chicken and stir to combine.
5. Serve with mashed potatoes or rice.
This was so delicious. The gravy was creamy and smooth, not lumpy or watery (which is how my first 2 attempts came out). You can serve this with mashed potatoes or with rice. I’ve served it both ways and I prefer it with mashed potatoes. The kids loved this and we had zero leftovers.
