Ingredients
2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
2 packets chicken gravy mix
1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth or water
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Optional: 1/4 cup sour cream or cream cheese

Instructions
- Place chicken in the bottom of the crockpot.
- In a bowl, mix together cream of chicken soup, chicken gravy packets, broth or water, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Pour mixture over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated.
- Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours or on high for 3–4 hours, until chicken is tender and easy to shred.
- Shred the chicken directly in the crockpot using two forks and stir it into the gravy.
- Optional: Stir in sour cream or cream cheese for extra creaminess.
- Serve hot over mashed potatoes, rice, noodles, or biscuits. Garnish with fresh parsley.
Notes
Use chicken thighs for extra juiciness.

Use low-fat cream soup for a lighter version.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Reheat with a splash of broth or milk if the gravy thickens.
