What if we don’t have gravy mix
Looking forward to tryin this recipe. Sounds delicious. Thanks
My family loved this recipe but we found it to be salty so we now use low sodium gravy and soup and it has totally cured that we put it over stuffing and add whatever veggies we are in the mood for
An absolute family favorite! It is so easy and quick to prepare! So tasty and a true comfort food.
I made this and I added a bag of frozen mixed vegetables, I did not shred the chicken, served the gravy and vegetables over mashed potatoes. Made a can of Pillsbury flaky biscuits to go with it. This is my husband new favorite meal.
This recipe was very good!
Delicious!! Family favorite!!!!
Delicious!! The whole family loved it! So easy to throw together!!
We made this recipe and loved it. We added a bag of frozen mixed vegetables to it. Turned out great.
One of our family favorite slow cooker recipes. So simple too. Give it a try
This recipe is extremely good. My whole family loved it. I also shared it with friends an family they also love it.
in the description of this chicken and gravy it mentions brown gravy, but i do not see it in ingredients list , why is that?
We used a chicken gravy mix in this recipe. It creates the gravy for the chicken in this recipe.
Great every time. Family frequently asks for this one!
Every time I add cream soups to my crock pot to cook all day even on the low setting they break down. Is there any solution that I can do to keep this happening and stay creamy??
Very good. Didnt shred but cut tender chick into chunks. Very tender. Could have added one more chick breast since 1.5 lbs was only 2 large ones. One more would have worked.
Does the chicken have to be fresh, or can it be put in crock pot frozen?
I use frozen chicken breasts all the time, either would work!
If adding FROZEN PEAS AND CARROTS, at what point do I add them? If instead of that, adding FRESHLY CUT carrots (and no peas), what point should I add them?
