Absolutely! Here’s a full, easy recipe for a comforting Crock Pot Chicken and Gravy.
Crock Pot Chicken and Gravy
Servings: 4–6
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 1 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tbsp butter (optional, for richer gravy)
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour (or cornstarch for gluten-free)
- ½ cup heavy cream or milk (optional, for creamy gravy)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Chicken
- Season chicken with salt, pepper, paprika, thyme, and rosemary.
- Place chopped onions and garlic in the bottom of the crock pot.
- Lay the chicken on top of the onions.
2. Add Liquid
- Pour the chicken broth over the chicken.
- Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until chicken is tender and fully cooked.
3. Make the Gravy
- Once chicken is done, remove it from the crock pot and set aside.
- Mix flour with a small amount of the liquid from the crock pot to create a smooth slurry.
- Stir the slurry back into the crock pot along with butter and cream (if using).
- Cook on high for 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gravy thickens.
4. Serve
- Slice or shred the chicken and return it to the gravy.
- Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
💡 Tips:
- For extra flavor, you can add sliced mushrooms or carrots before cooking.
- If you want a thicker gravy, whisk in a little more flour or cornstarch slurry gradually.
If you like, I can also give a “dump-and-go” version where you add everything to the crock pot at once and get thick, creamy gravy without extra steps. Do you want that?
