How to Make Garlic Bacon Chicken in a Slow Cooker
Aunt Lou here.
This Crock Pot Garlic Bacon Chicken is from Gooseberry Patchโs Everyday Slow Cooker. We all know that I love just about any recipe that can be thrown together in 5 minutes or less. And, when that recipe produces a mouthwatering main dish that has your family smiling, that make this Momma really happy!
Notes on Crock Pot Garlic Bacon Chicken Recipe
- I had some HUGE chicken breasts, so I ended up using only 5 chicken breasts, because I cut the extra large breasts in half. So you will need to make the call based on the size of your chicken and your needs.
- The recipe said that broiling the chicken was optional, so that is how I put it in the recipe card, but let me tell ya people…you want to broil the chicken and crisp up the bacon. YUM!
- I used my 9 x13 casserole slow cooker made by Crock Pot. It was great for making sure all of the chicken was laid out in one layer and evenly covered with the soup mixture. If you aren’t using a casserole crock, I would recommend a 5-6 quart crock pot since there is so much food in this recipe.

Havenโt made this yet but would really like to! Can I use boneless, skinless chicken thigh instead of breasts? Or bone in & skin on thighs?
While I have not tried this recipe with any kind of chicken thighs, I think it could work. However, you will want to watch it closely the first time you make it since the cooking time will vary depending on what kind of chicken thigh you use. If you give it a try, let me know how it goes!
Can you cook this on high for 3-4 hours for a quicker cook time?
Where’s the garlic? There’s no garlic in this recipe so the “Garlic Bacon Chicken” title seems wrong.
Hi SMU!
The garlic is in the soup, but if you want to add garlic, that would be a great idea! One can never have too much garlic! Enjoy!
Aunt Lou
my husband doesn’t like sour cream – what can I substitute – he doesn’t like yogurt either, in case you were to mention that.
Thanks for recommending the casserole crock pot. I think it’s a terrific idea and mine is on its way. Are there any recipe adjustments I need to think about using the casserole vs deep crock? Is there a recipe book just for casserole crock pots? Thx
Hi Cindy!
We have quite a few recipes we have made in our casserole crocks (with more to come!). I’ll put a link to the page below. That way you will have plenty of ideas when your casserole crock arrives! Enjoy!

Do you dilute the soup with water?
Haven’t made this yet but plan to this weekend. Curious as to why the flour is necessary (trying to get healthy!). Really excited to learn about the rectangular crock, too!
I think the flour is to help thicken up the gravy. I just followed the recipe. If you try something else and like it, be sure to let us know! Enjoy!
This looks awesome! I am wondering if it is best to broil the chicken before putting in the crock pot or after it is done before serving?
You’ll want to put it in the broiler right before serving to crisp up the bacon. Yum! Enjoy!
Thank you! Looking forward to making this one!
Where do you find the soup? Never heard of it. Have heard of cream of mushroom. Live in Illinois
Bonnie,
I hadn’t heard of it either before this recipe. I found it at our Jay-C Store. It was a Campbell’s soup. Hope that helps! Enjoy!
How much flour, 1/2 ?
A half a cup. The recipe is fixed. Enjoy!
You say that we need 1/2 of flour? is it 1/2 cup?
I see they must have corrected it as the recipe does say 1/2c.
Yes, a half a cup. The recipe is fixed. Enjoy!
