What type of chicken is best for crockpot chicken and gravy?
This recipe calls for boneless, skinless chicken breasts, but you could also use boneless, skinless chicken thighs.
Can I use frozen chicken in crockpot chicken and gravy?
I do not recommend cooking chicken from frozen in the crockpot, as it spends too much time in the “temperature danger zone”, which could cause food poisoning. Be sure to thaw your chicken fully before using it.
Can I use homemade gravy for crockpot chicken and gravy?
You sure can! Omit the soup and gravy mix, and substitute with an equal amount of homemade gravy mixed with the low sodium chicken broth. I recommend starting with this make ahead gravy recipe and using chicken in place of the turkey.
Serving Suggestions
This heart meal is great with white or brown rice, mashed potatoes, bread for dipping – so good! You can of course add more sides if you wish. Here’s some favorites:
- Baked Mac and Cheese
- Homemade Hawaiian Rolls
- Three Cheese Asparagus Gratin
- Garlic Mashed Cauliflower
The gravy is so good, made with sour cream and chicken soup, it has a rich and luscious flavor.
Storage Instructions
Store leftover crockpot chicken and gravy in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Serving Variations
Instead of cooked rice, serve the chicken and gravy over mashed potatoes or stuffing.
