Ingredients
  

  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
  • 2 envelopes (0.87 oz) dry chicken gravy mix
  • ½ cup water or chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 pounds chicken breasts boneless and skinless
  • 2 tablespoons butter sliced into pats
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • In the slow cooker, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, gravy mix, water or broth, garlic powder, and pepper.
  • Add the chicken and stir to coat in the sauce.
  • Place the butter slices on top of the chicken.
  • Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Notes

Try a different cream soup or other gravy flavors. To thin out the gravy, add chicken broth or water as needed. Don't overcook the chicken. Shred the chicken using two forks or your hands.
