Instructions :
Add your chicken to your crock pot (mine is still frozen and the that’s fine) drizzle with olive oil and then add seasonings in recipe or you can use a premade mix of your choice. The one I’m showing is what I used today and it was delicious. After you are done seasoning your chicken put the cover on and set your crock pot temperature to low and cook for 6-8 hours or high 4-5 hours or until cooked through. Then go about your day, do something fun, let the chicken cook.
These are the ingredients you need to make your delicious gravy. This gravy is wonderful and just totally makes the whole dish come together.
Melt your butter in a large pot. After it’s melted add your flour and stir together until combined.
When your roux is combined next add the chicken broth and seasonings listed in recipe.
Mix all together and bring to a slow boil and let everything start to thicken. Stir constantly so you don’t have lumps. Then slowly add the heavy cream and heat through.
While the gravy is heating through (turn temperature down to low at this point) shred your chicken. You can shred it directly in your crock pot or shred it on a cutting board. Either way is fine.
Add chicken back into crock pot if you used a cutting board, then add gravy and mix throughly. Set your crock pot temperature to low. As your chicken and gravy is melding its flavors, this is a good time to cook your mashed potatoes or rice or whatever you’d like to serve with your chicken gravy. This day I chose mashed potatoes. I usually choose mashed potatoes because they are the best!
This is the finished product. This is really so good 😊 and hearty and delicious on a cold Wisconsin night. I served this with mashed potatoes and rolls and green beans. Give this a try! Your family will thank you and if you do let me know if they liked it or not!
From my hearth to yours, enjoy!
