Crockpot Chicken & Garlic Gravy
Crockpot chicken and gravy is a simple comfort food favorite in our house! Toss everything into your slow cooker and walk away. The gravy makes itself in the slow cooker and the chicken turns out so juicy and tender. Big thanks to Bob Evans for sponsoring this post.
This time of year demands cozy fires and crockpots full of comfort food.
Am I right?
I get so sad towards the middle of winter, wondering if summer will ever show up again.
And then I bust out my crockpot and all is right in my world again. Slow cooker recipes make me happy – they’re cozy and warm and comforting.
This crockpot chicken and gravy definitely qualifies as comfort food and it’s one of the easiest things ever to make! You’re going to love the creamy garlic gravy, the tender chicken, and best of all – the dreamy mashed potatoes you serve this over.
I partnered with Bob Evans again this year to share new recipes featuring their refrigerated mac and cheese and mashed potatoes.
Both products are ones that I keep on hand in my kitchen at all times. They taste homemade, they take less than 10 minutes to get on the table, and my family loves them. The mashed potatoes are perfect with this easy crockpot chicken.
How to make this crockpot chicken and gravy recipe:
To start, you’ll need a 5-6 quart slow cooker.
Add your chicken breasts to the slow cooker along with a couple cans of cream of chicken soup (or use my substitute for cream of chicken soup), a packet of chicken gravy mix, and a bunch of minced garlic.
Cover your slow cooker and walk away.
When the chicken is cooked through, about 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low, shred the chicken with two forks.
Stir in some freshly chopped parsley and cracked pepper.
Dinner is almost done!
Grab your package of Bob Evans Garlic Mashed Potatoes, peel back the plastic, and microwave.
Heap some mashed potatoes on your plate and top them off with a couple spoonfuls of this chicken and gravy.
My family devours this recipe and always asks me to make it again soon. It really tastes amazing, but it’s just about the easiest thing ever. I hope you’ll give it a try too!

Can you use jarred gravy ipo gravy mix?
It might be a bit too runny since you’re also using the canned soup.
This chicken and garlic (!!!) gravy sounds amazing! ย Anything in the slow-cooker is my jam – thanks for the inspiration!
This looks super yummy! Comfort food in a crock pot is definitely the perfect kind of dinner this time of year!
great flavors and slow cooked even better, garlic and chicken is hard to mess up, even for me, but gravy too is a nice bonus, thank you
This crockpot chicken and gravy sounds like my definition of winter comfort food! We’re supposed to get a ton of snow this weekend, so I think I need to get this into the slow cooker before the snow starts. It’ll be delicious after a round of shoveling! ๐
Always looking for another chicken recipe, this one is great! Thank you for sharing it!
We had this for dinner tonight, and it was terrific! ย It was so easy. ย I served it over rice. ย Thanks!
Do you think this would taste good over mashed sweet potatoes? Also how would you make your own chicken gravy mix? Boullion and flour?
I haven’t tried this over sweet potatoes – not sure how it would taste. And I haven’t experimented with the recipe other than as written, so I really can’t offer help with making your own gravy mix.
What brand of gravy mix do you use?
Any brand should be fine. I think I usually grab McCormick.
Sounds yummy but how much is a serving? It has calorie amount but no serving. Also, is the calorie amount listed include the mashed potatoes? Thanks.
The recipe serves 10. The nutrition does include the potatoes as well. ๐
No water added to package gravy correct? Thx
That’s correct!
This was super tasty as well! Three for three. I actually made it with chicken thighs because that is what package of meat I opened. Still worked great. Thanks for the great recipes. I put all my stuff in the crockpot and go to bed, then in the morning there is yummy food waiting. We pack it up in our Tupperware and take it for lunch and dinner. Love it over rice.
How much salt?
Whoops! No salt added – it’s already salty enough with the gravy mix. ๐
Thank you!
how much in grams do you use of the chicken gravy mix please?
The packet I use is 24 grams.
This recipe sounds delicious! What a great combination, everyone loves chicken and gravy. Forever loving the crockpot!
Made this tonight for dinner. So easy! 5 mins prep, 4 hours on high, chicken was fall apart tender. Served over mashed potatoes with peas on the side. Family loooovvvveeed it!! Total comfort food!!!
So glad you and the family enjoyed this one! ๐
I am making this recipe today, it is not that cold, but the weather is damp, rainy and raw.
I did make one substitute, as I am not shredding the boneless chicken breast “tenders.” I used a gluten-free gravy as my husband is gluten intolerant. McCormick makes a delicious G.F. gravy and we both love the Bob Evans Mashed Potatoes, I may never peel another potato! The green veggie choice will be either peas or broccoli.
