Step 4: Pour and Cover

Pour the gravy mixture directly over the chicken, making sure every piece is well coated. Add small pieces of butter on top if using. Cover the slow cooker with the lid.

Step 5: Slow Cook to Perfection

Cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or
Cook on HIGH for 3–4 hours

The chicken will become incredibly tender, soaking up the gravy while releasing its own juices to enhance the flavor.

Step 6: Shred or Serve Whole

Once cooked, you can leave the chicken whole or shred it directly in the slow cooker using two forks. Stir gently to combine the shredded chicken with the gravy for an ultra-creamy texture.

Step 7: Taste and Adjust

Give the gravy a final taste. Add salt or pepper if needed. If you want a thicker gravy, leave the lid off for 15–20 minutes on HIGH, stirring occasionally.

Serving Suggestions

Tips for the Best Results
