Easy Not-So-Bland Chicken & Gravy

This is actually my grandmother’s recipe – before you go and start thinking I came up with it.

Yummm.

This is a simple, yet very yummy and not bland, recipe for making chicken and gravy in the crockpot and it takes literally 5 minutes to prepare.

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 1 can chicken gravy
• 1 can cream of chicken soup
• 1/2 cup of water
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon rosemary
• 1/2 teaspoon thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Directions:

• Combine everything except chicken in a small bowl (or in a 4 cup measuring cup if you’re like me).
• Pour half of mixture in crockpot.
• Add chicken.
• Pour other half on top of crockpot.
• Cook until chicken is done (low 6 hours, high 3 hours)

See. So simple, and so much more flavorful than the usual chicken and gravy that uses canned stuff for the gravy. And it is so easy. I didn’t even completely thaw out my chicken for it. I just grabbed my whole bag of chicken out of the freezer and threw it in the fridge over night, so everything was still half frozen.

Yesterday we got in a new package of diapers from a good longtime friend from JustMommies. We now have a very modest and respectable little diaper stash going.
