Pammy's Crock Pot Chicken Breast and Gravy
"My hubby (says 5 stars) and grand kids (very fussy) really like this. This is one thing all 3 of the grand kids will actually eat. The grand kids normally don't like gravy much but all of them like this gravy. I serve with mashed potatoes, a veggie and homemade rolls. Hope you enjoy it! Note added - you can use no sodium bouillon.
NOTE ADDED - I have also noticed sometimes when I make this it seems more salty then other times. DEFINATELY try to use low sodium or skip the boullion. Nov. 2007...My daughter used a package of Ranch dressing instead of Italian and a jar of gravy instead of a package. She said they all loved it. We don't care for ranch but thought maybe others would be interested."

Even though the end result was just a tad salty for our tastes, five FANTABULOUS stars for this one!!!! Simply put, when I thinned the gravy out with some half & half & a bit of water, this was some of the best chicken we've ever sunk our teeth into! The gravy has an intense chicken flavor that's UNBEATABLE if you're really craving chicken. Understandable, considering the bouillon, chicken soup & chicken gravy mix are all working in harmony to flavor this so well. I browned my chicken in olive oil first and ended up subbing chicken broth for the bouillon because I discovered (too late) mine had gone bad. I also used Knorr Roasted Chicken gravy mix and found as I tasted along the way that this final ingredient was what truly took this recipe over the edge! I served it with sour cream & onion mashed potatoes & sweet corn for a dinner to remember. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this Pammy! -
Really good...and the reviewers are right...my very picky 7 year old (who won't eat chicken without breading) really liked it. He wanted to pour the gravy all over everything. -
I'm always looking for a good new crock pot recipe! This is good! I used about 1/4 cup of chopped onion and 2 cloves of fresh pressed garlic. Since I had no gravy mix, I just used 1/4 c. of water, 1 tsp of bouillon, and about 1 T. of flour. Added everything but this mix at the beginning. It turned out great. I served this with #7875 Potatoes, Garlic, which were tasty with the gravy on them. Thanks! -
This was yummy! Use thick chix breasts - I used cutlets that were thin and they got dry but the recipe was fantastic! Just be careful !

This sounds pretty good, but I think I'll use skin-on, preferably boneless, thighs, giving the skin side a fast browning in a skillet first for extra flavor. Then I'll substitute cream of celery or mushroom for the cream of chicken and my favorite Garlic & Herb Good Seasons. At the 4-hour mark, I'll taste before adding liquid and may add more garlic & onion powders. I guess I'll decide whether to serve with rice, pasta or potatoes as the mood strikes me when I actually make this. Definitely looking forward to it.

This was soooooo good! It was just a little salty but I think next time I will replace bouillon with stock and ignore the italitan dressing mix. Please dont let this deter you from trying it! The serving size says up to 8 servings, my boyfriend and I pretty much ate it all in one sitting! Thanks for the share, I will definately make this again!

This was very delicious, im not a salt user though, so after reading other reviews i substituted the water for chicken stock and left out the boulion. i also didnt have a dressiing packet so i added some italian seasoning instead. i also used fresh onions and garlic. it came out so juicy ! i'll definatly be making this again. thank you pam! -
This was really good. I only used 2 chicken breasts, cooking for me and my husband. I cooked it for the same amount of time and it was fine. I used fresh onion and garlic because I didn't have the powders. Also used a teaspoon of chicken base instead of bouillon, and half a packet of italian salad dressing mix. We both really enjoyed it. Thanks for posting the recipe!

You may have noticed alot of my recipes are "Pammy's". This is so family and friends can know which one's are mine.
My hubby, "Davey", is very "picky" when it comes to food. He will try SOME foods but I really have to search for new ideas....I love Recipezaar! (Thanks!)
"Pammy" and "Davey" are "pet" names given by some of our family and friends. :)
"Davey" was my High School Sweetheart...I married him about 18 or 19 years AFTER I fell madly in love with him. lol! Better late than never! This is the second marriage for both of us, but, should have been our first and only.
We are huge Green Bay Packer fans. Our "Packer" room is our hang-out/TV room.
Together we have one child, a daughter, Michelle, and 3 beautiful grandchildren, Kody, Mayklin, and Nicolas. "Davey" also has a son, Robert, from his first marriage. I had 3 children from my first marriage...son, Nicolas, died at 3 1/2 months old and 2 daughters, Melinda and Sandra, died during pregnancy. "Gone but not forgotten."
We have a dog, we sort of "rescued". Her name is River. We kinda think of her as our "Toddler". She LOVES toys! She drags them all out and all over the place but she NEVER picks them up and puts them away! lol! She is pretty sure she is a "person", and thus, she thinks she is entitled to "people" rights. lol! We love her anyways. :)
I hope to post some of my Grandma Ida's recipes on recipezaar. The whole family LOVED her cooking and she loved cooking for all! Even when using her actual recipes...it never taste like when Grandma made it. It had to be that "special love" she added.
