Instructions

1. Prepare the Chicken

Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker in an even layer.

2. Make the Gravy Mixture

In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, chicken gravy mix, and chicken broth until smooth.

3. Cook the Chicken

Pour the gravy mixture over the chicken, making sure each piece is covered.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 4 hours (or HIGH for 2 hours) until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

4. Shred the Chicken

Once the chicken is fully cooked, use two forks to shred it directly in the slow cooker.
Stir well so the chicken absorbs all the delicious gravy.

5. Add Sour Cream & Seasoning

Stir in the sour cream for extra creaminess.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

6. Serve & Enjoy!

Spoon the chicken and gravy over rice, mashed potatoes, or biscuits.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a final touch.

Notes

Use low-sodium ingredients to prevent the dish from being too salty.
Don’t overcook the chicken—4 hours on LOW is perfect for juicy, tender meat.
For a thicker gravy, mix 1 tbsp cornstarch with 2 tbsp cold water and stir it in before serving.
Chicken thighs can be used instead of chicken breasts for extra flavor.
Pairs perfectly with mashed potatoes, rice, biscuits, or roasted vegetables.
