Tender chicken slowly cooks in a rich, flavorful gravy made with cream of chicken soup, ranch seasoning, and chicken gravy mix.

Prepare the Slow Cooker<\/h3>\n<p>Lightly grease a 6-quart slow cooker. Place the chicken breasts or thighs in the bottom of the slow cooker.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Make the Gravy Mixture<\/h3>\n<p>In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, water, chicken gravy mix, ranch seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Combine<\/h3>\n<p>Pour the gravy mixture evenly over the chicken. Place the butter on top.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Slow Cook<\/h3>\n<p>Cover and cook on <strong>LOW for 5\u20136 hours<\/strong> or <strong>HIGH for 3\u20134 hours<\/strong>, until the chicken is tender and reaches an internal temperature of <strong>165\u00b0F<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Make It Creamy<\/h3>\n<p>Carefully remove the chicken from the slow cooker. Stir the sour cream into the hot gravy until completely smooth. If the gravy is thicker than you prefer, gradually stir in a little chicken broth until you reach your desired consistency.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Shred or Serve Whole<\/h3>\n<p>Shred the chicken with two forks, or keep the pieces whole. Return the chicken to the slow cooker and spoon plenty of the creamy gravy over the top.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Serve<\/h3>\n<p>Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot over mashed potatoes, rice, biscuits, or egg noodles.<\/p>\n<h2>Easy Add-Ins<\/h2>\n<p>For extra flavor and texture, try adding:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Sliced mushrooms<\/li>\n<li>Frozen peas or carrots<\/li>\n<li>Sliced onions<\/li>\n<li>Shredded cheddar cheese<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Helpful Tip<\/h2>\n<p>Chicken thighs work especially well in this recipe because they tend to stay tender and juicy during slow cooking. If using chicken breasts, avoid overcooking them so they remain moist and tender.<\/p>\n<h2>Serving Ideas<\/h2>\n<p>This creamy chicken and gravy pairs beautifully with <strong>mashed potatoes, steamed rice, buttered egg noodles, fluffy biscuits, or roasted vegetables<\/strong>. It\u2019s an easy, comforting family dinner that comes together with minimal effort.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Slow Cooker Chicken &amp; Gravy This comforting Slow Cooker Chicken &amp; Gravy is creamy, savory, and incredibly easy to make.&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7707,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7706","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-recipe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7706","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7706"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7706\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7708,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7706\/revisions\/7708"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7707"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7706"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7706"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7706"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
