Savory Slow Cooker Chicken Breasts with Gravy

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Slow Cooker

• Lightly grease the inside of your slow cooker with non-stick spray or a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Season the Chicken

1. Season the chicken breasts on both sides with a sprinkle of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

Step 3: Make the Gravy Mixture

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, dry onion soup mix, and thyme or rosemary (if using). Stir until well combined.

Step 4: Add Chicken and Gravy to the Slow Cooker

1. Place the seasoned chicken breasts in the slow cooker, and pour the gravy mixture over the top to cover the chicken evenly.

Step 5: Slow Cook the Chicken

1. Cover the slow cooker and cook on Low for 4-6 hours or High for 2-3 hours until the chicken is tender and cooked through.

Step 6: Thicken the Gravy (Optional)

1. If you prefer a thicker gravy, mix 1-2 tbsp cornstarch with a small amount of water to make a slurry.
2. About 20-30 minutes before serving, stir the slurry into the slow cooker, cover, and let it cook until the gravy thickens.

Step 7: Serve

1. Remove the chicken from the slow cooker, spoon the gravy over each breast, and serve warm with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
