This recipe was very easy to do. I found it at Cooktop Cove via Pinterest(?). The original recipe can be found here. We could describe it as very plain (bland you might think if you are used to a lot of seasonings) but we both enjoyed it very much. It was satisfying and tasty. You can always dress it up more with your own favorite seasonings. We were tired and wanted a hot meal on what turned out to be a chilly day. This fit our needs perfectly.
Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient Country Gravy Chicken
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 packet of country gravy mix
(or you can use the ready-made jar of Heinz Homestyle Gravy that we used)
1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup water
Suggested sides: mashed potatoes and green beans
Lightly grease the inside of your slow cooker. Place the chicken in the bottom in one layer.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the country gravy mix, or in our case the jar of ready-made gravy, condensed cream of chicken soup and water until mostly smooth.
Pour the gravy mixture evenly over the chicken, cover and cook on LOW for 5 to 6 hours, or on HIGH 3 to 4 hours (which is the temperature we used), until the chicken is very tender and cooked through.
Once done, gently spoon some of the gravy over the chicken before serving. If you like, break the chicken into pieces right in the cooker for extra tender bites.
Serve hot over mashed potatoes, rice or noodles with plenty of gravy on top.
We served ours with green beans and mashed potatoes. The next day no mashed potatoes but there was rice. This turned out to be our favorite - lots of gravy left - excellent and delicious!

Thank you Margaret :) I am glad you like this. You take care too.
DeleteSounds delicious! I grew up on bland cooking with few spices. My mom rarely even used pepper because it was too spicy--lol!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rita, I love the fact your mom thought pepper was too spicy. Your mom and my mom would have got along great I’m thinking. I am always asking my dear other half to put Denise’s amount of pepper into things, not Gregg’s amount of pepper, lol! I also grew up with food on the bland side but probably like yours, very tasty :)
DeleteIt looks pretty tasty tome. I love chicken no matter how it's prepared.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ann, I love chicken any which way, but fried chicken, anything fried, does not love me :)
