Shredded Chicken Gravy on Mashed Potatoes

by
  • 2 cans of cream of chicken soup
  • 2 cans of water
  • 2 packets of chicken gravy mix
  • 2 packs of chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)
  • Mashed potatoes (instant or homemade—your choice)
  • Garlic powder, salt, and pepper (to taste)
  • Rolls (optional, but highly recommended!)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Crockpot: Start by throwing both cans of cream of chicken soup, the two cans of water, and the chicken gravy packets into the crockpot. Stir it up to combine everything nicely.
  2. Season the Chicken: Next, season your chicken breasts with a little garlic powder, salt, and pepper. This adds a nice layer of flavor to the dish, so don’t be shy with the seasonings!
  3. Cook the Chicken: Place your seasoned chicken breasts into the crockpot. Set it to low and let it cook for 7-8 hours. This long, slow cooking process will make the chicken unbelievably tender and easy to shred later.
  4. Shred the Chicken: After the cooking time is up, take the chicken out and use two forks to shred it into bite-sized pieces. Once shredded, add the chicken back into the crockpot to soak up all that delicious gravy.
  5. Serve on Mashed Potatoes: While the chicken is finishing up in the crockpot, prepare your mashed potatoes. Whether you use instant or homemade, don’t forget to add a little butter for extra creaminess. Once the mashed potatoes are ready, ladle that rich, savory shredded chicken gravy over the top.
  6. Add Rolls (Optional but Delicious): Serve this comforting meal with a side of warm rolls. They’re perfect for soaking up any extra gravy left on your plate!

Notes

  • Make It Your Own: Feel free to add veggies like peas or carrots to the dish to give it more texture and nutrition.
  • Leftovers Galore: This recipe makes plenty! You’ll have enough to feed at least 5 people, and the leftovers are just as delicious the next day.
  • Instant vs. Homemade Potatoes: While instant mashed potatoes work great, making them from scratch can give the dish an extra layer of flavor and texture.
