Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Gravy Mixture

  • 2 (10.5 ounce) cans cream of chicken soup
  • 1 packet chicken gravy mix
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

Seasoning

  • ¼ cup parsley, minced
  • 2 teaspoons cracked black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Add the boneless, skinless chicken breasts to a 5-quart slow cooker, spreading them out evenly in the base.
  2. Mix the gravy: In a small bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, chicken gravy mix, and minced garlic until thoroughly blended.
  3. Combine with chicken: Spread the creamy soup mixture evenly over the chicken breasts in the slow cooker.
  4. Cook the chicken: Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on high heat for 3 hours or low heat for 5 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
  5. Shred the chicken: Once cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken breasts directly in the slow cooker, mixing the shredded meat well into the gravy mixture.
  6. Season and finish: Add the minced parsley and cracked black pepper to the slow cooker and stir thoroughly to combine all flavors.
  7. Serve: Spoon the chicken and gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles for a warm, satisfying meal.

Notes

  • You can substitute chicken thighs for a juicier texture if preferred.
  • For a thicker gravy, remove the lid during the last 30 minutes to allow some of the liquid to evaporate.
  • Garlic powder can be used instead of fresh garlic if needed.
  • Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 3 days and freeze nicely.
  • Consider serving with steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a balanced meal.
