How to Make Perfect Chicken Dinner in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
As you may know, one of my absolute favorite recipes Momma would make when Cris and I were growing up was her roast and veggies in her crock pot. I loved it so much that she would send a full roast and veggies with me to college when I would come home for a weekend. As Michael and I were thinking about what we would like to eat this week, Momma’s Perfect Crock Pot Roast came to mind, and Michael suggested chicken. What a brilliant man I married! So, now we have this delicious Perfect Crock Pot Chicken Dinner. You are going to love it!
I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs. I know some people prefer white meat though. So, if you would like to use boneless, skinless chicken breasts, that will work. You will either have a longer cooking time (probably closer to 6-8 hours) or you can cut your chicken breasts into thigh size portions. Either way, you will have a lovely dinner to serve yourself and those you love!
What You Will Need
Ingredients Needed
- 2.5 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 5 potatoes peeled and sliced into wedges
- 1 bag of baby carrots
- 2 medium onions halved
- 2 pkgs chicken gravy mix, divided
- 2 cups cold water
Equipment Needed
- Vegetable peeler
- Sharp knife
- Cutting board
- Measuring cup
- Small bowl
- Fork or small whisk
- 6 quart slow cooker
Time Needed
- Prep Time: 10 minutes
- Cooking Time: 4 to 6 hours on low (This is total time. One hour before this is ready, you will take 1 cup of cold water and mix it with the last packet of chicken gravy mix before pouring it over everything in your crock pot.)

Do you shred chicken thighs and how do you cut onions size?
I did not shred the chicken, but you can if you want. As for the onions, I cut the down the middle and spaced out the halves around the crock pot. Enjoy!
