Ingredients

  • 2 - 2.5 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 2 packets (0.87 oz each) McCormick chicken gravy mix
  • 2 cans (10.5 oz each) condensed cream of chicken soup (use a lower sodium variety to control the salt in the dish)
  • ¾ cup water
  • ground black pepper, to taste
  • For serving: rice, mashed potatoes, or noodles
  • Optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley or other fresh herbs

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Place the chicken in a slow cooker that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the gravy packets, condensed soups, water, and black pepper. Pour over the chicken.
  3. Cover and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours or on HIGH for 2-3 hours. Shred the meat with two forks and stir it back into the gravy.
  4. Serve the chicken and gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles. Garnish with chopped fresh herbs and extra black pepper if you like.

Notes

  • Make it a Freezer Meal: Place the raw chicken and the gravy mixture in a Ziploc freezer bag. Store in the freezer for up to 2 months. When ready to cook, thaw in the fridge overnight. Dump the ingredients into the Crock Pot and cook according to package instructions. This is a great way to plan ahead for a new baby's arrival or to stock the freezer of a sick loved one.
  • Adjust the consistency of the gravy to suit your preference. For instance, if it's too thick for your liking, stir in milk or heavy cream at the very end. If it's too thin and watery, thicken it up with a cornstarch slurry. In a small bowl combine 2 tablespoons of cold water with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch. Add the cornstarch mixture to the gravy and shredded chicken; cover with the lid, and cook for 10 more minutes (or until thickened).
