Mississippi Chicken has been a long time favorite for long time readers of Recipes That Crock, so we thought we would revisit this tried and true recipe for new readers.

This recipe is super simple, involves few ingredients and comes out perfect every time.

Slow Cooking with Chicken

We are often asked why we choose to cook with boneless skinless chicken thighs instead of breasts. It all comes down to preference. We prefer the way boneless skinless chicken thighs retain their moisture and cook up tender without drying out. However, if you choose to use boneless skinless chicken breast, keep a close eye on it the first time so that you don’t overcook it. Chicken breasts in the crock pot should be tender and easily pull apart with a fork.

Slow Cooking Tip: If your chicken breast tends to be chalky and dry, you are probably cooking it too hot for too long. Try reducing cooking time for tender chicken every time.

Low Carb Options for Mississippi Chicken

While not everyone is comfortable using pre-made packets in their low carb diet, we enjoy this Crock Pot Mississippi Chicken in our low carb menu from time to time by checking nutritional information on ranch packets (sometimes opting for a dill ranch packet or chive and onion packet). Some packets reduce the carb counts for the entire recipe by 16 carbs. Additionally we make sure to use AuJus Gravy packets instead of higher carb gravy packets– this typically makes the carb count at least 1/4 of what it would be.

Notes

  • We used boneless skinless thighs to make this recipe. Feel free to use the chicken cut of chicken you prefer. Cooking times may vary.
  • If you are unsure of when your chicken is done or your preferred temperature, you can also use a  meat thermometer in your slow cooker. This particular meat thermometer model allows you to place the probe in the meat, close the crock lid and set an alarm for when it reaches the temperature you set on the thermometer. I highly recommend using a meat thermometer set at 170 with this dish especially if you choose to substitute chicken breasts for the chicken thighs in this dish.

  • We make this recipe low carb by using the lowest carb mixes we can find.
  • You can find more low carb recipes in our Low Carb Recipe Library that we update weekly.

  • As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cookingthis dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
  • All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

      Thank you so much for your kind words! We appreciate you taking your time to speak life into us!

      We like to serve it with mashed potatoes and green beans. You could also serve it with a salad or corn. Any of your favorite sides should do well with it. Enjoy!
