  • 1 packet of dry onion soup mix or homemade seasoning blend

  • 1/2 cup chicken broth

  • Optional: fresh herbs (thyme, rosemary) for added aroma

How to Make Crockpot Chicken with Gravy

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken

Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. For extra flavor, brown the chicken in a hot skillet for 2-3 minutes per side (optional but recommended).

Step 2: Combine Ingredients

In the crockpot, mix together the cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, and onion soup mix. Add the chicken thighs, turning to coat them in the gravy base.

Step 3: Slow Cook

Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

Step 4: Finish and Serve

If the gravy is too thin, remove the chicken and thicken the gravy by stirring in a cornstarch slurry (1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp cold water), then cook on high for 10-15 minutes until thickened. Return the chicken to the crockpot to warm before serving.
