Chicken and Gravy in Crock Pot
This crockpot chicken gravy is guaranteed to become a family favorite you will make again and again! The juicy chicken swaddled in the decadent, velvety, herb laced gravy over a bed of creamy mashed potatoes, (or rice, pasta or low carb cauliflower rice) is a satisfying explosion of flavor and luxurious texture in every bite. This crockpot chicken and gravy recipe requires less than 10 minutes to prep, is made with pantry friendly ingredients, reheats like a dream and is wonderfully versatile. You can keep the recipe simple or add carrots, mushrooms, potatoes, etc. Best of all, the gravy is rich and creamy - no pathetic, watery gravy here! - without any “cream of” soups. This chicken and gravy recipe also reheats and freezes beautifully for meal prep or make ahead dinners!

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Drizzle chicken with olive oil then season with salt, garlic powder, paprika, pepper. Transfer to a lightly greased 6-quart (or larger) slow cooker; set aside.
olive oil1 tablespoon
2
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk the flour into the butter and cook ⏱️ 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and whisk in 3 cups chicken broth. Whisk cornstarch with remaining 1 cup chicken broth then whisk into the skillet followed by chicken bouillon and all seasonings. Bring to a simmer, whisking constantly, and continue to simmer until thickened to the consistency of thick gravy (it will thin in the crockpot). Pour over chicken in crockpot.

Cook on high for ⏱️ 4-5 hours or on low for ⏱️ 6-8 hours, until chicken is tender enough to shred. Shred chicken and cook on low for an additional ⏱️ 30 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste (I add 1/2 teaspoon salt). Serve with mashed potatoes, pasta, rice, cauliflower rice, zoodles, etc.
