No Gravy Mix
I know you’ve seen a lot of recipes for Chicken and Gravy. I have too. The recipes I found all included packets of gravy mix and canned soup. I wanted to make this recipe with no canned soup and no gravy mix. I think it’s safe to say that “mom wouldn’t let me!” ha! But, really, it’s true. She says that I can’t learn to cook if I take a bunch of shortcuts.
When I finished developing this recipe, mom said it tasted like Thanksgiving! That’s got to be high praise, right?
Ingredients
I was surprised at how few ingredients I needed to make this wonderful comfort food recipe for Crockpot Chicken and Gravy.
Here is the list of ingredients:
- Chicken Breasts
- Chicken Stock
- Gluten Free Flour
- Bouillon
- Pepper
- Salt
- Garlic
- Braggs Sprinkle Seasoning
- Paprika
See that? Chicken, stock, flour and spices. Throw it all in a Crock Pot and you’re set for a delicious home-cooked meal in just a few hours. Add to it that it’s a gluten free recipe and you’ve got a win-win.
Have you tried Braggs Sprinkle Seasoning? I’m pretty sure that it’s the ingredient giving this meal the taste of a home cooked Thanksgiving dinner that we’re loving so much. It’s got a variety of wonderful and tasty herbs. I use it quite frequently in my cooking because it gives that little something extra that you can’t get from salt and pepper.
About Your Crockpot
Your cooking time can vary fairly widely. Crockpots tend to be different with their heating elements. I guess it could also have something to do with your electric outlet. It’s hard to say.
No matter the reason, be sure to start checking your chicken at about 3 hours. It needs to be tender enough to shred with a couple of forks.
You’ll want to stir it every once in awhile because, in the beginning of the cooking cycle, your flour may want to cook in only one spot. Stir it around to incorporate it.
Your gravy will thicken more as it cools. In fact, if you refrigerate leftovers, you may need to add more liquid to it when you reheat. It will only keep in the refrigerator for 2 or 3 days so be sure to eat it all right away.
