Instructions

Prepare the chicken: Place the boneless skinless chicken breasts in the slow cooker. Season with salt and black pepper according to your preference to enhance the flavor.
Make the gravy mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, chicken gravy mix packets, and optionally, 1/2 cup of water or chicken broth. This mixture will form a rich and flavorful gravy as it cooks.
Cook in slow cooker: Pour the prepared gravy mixture over the chicken in the slow cooker. Cover with the lid and cook on LOW setting for 4 to 6 hours until the chicken is tender and fully cooked through.
Shred the chicken: Before serving, use two forks to break the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces within the slow cooker, allowing them to soak up the gravy.
Serve: Spoon the chicken and gravy over hot steamed rice for a satisfying, hearty meal.

Notes

Using water or chicken broth is optional; broth will enhance the flavor more.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper before cooking or to taste after.
For thicker gravy, cook uncovered for the last 30 minutes to reduce liquid.
Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
