Servings: 6
Calories: 178kcal
Ingredients
- 3 medium chicken breasts, raw (about 2.5 pounds)
- 2 cups warm water
- 3 tsp Better than Bouillon Chicken Base, or 3 regular chicken bouillon cubes
- 2 tsp poultry seasoning
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup half and half (or whole milk)
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt (optional)
Instructions
- In the bowl of your slow cooker, whisk together water, bouillon, poultry seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Nestle chicken breasts into the broth mixtures and cook on low for 5-6 hours.
- Keeping lid on the slow cooker, turn heat to high. In the mean time, whisk together your half and half and cornstarch.
- Remove lid and add in the cornstarch mixture. Gently mix together with chicken, then leave to cook covered for about 10 minutes, or until gravy is thick. The chicken should be very tender at this point and shred on its own as you mix everything together.
- Taste and add salt if needed. Most bouillon will be salty enough, but adjust to your taste.
