(Optional) Sear the Chicken: For extra flavor, lightly season the chicken with salt and pepper and sear it in a skillet with a bit of olive oil or butter until golden on both sides. Totally optional, but adds great flavor.
Add to Slow Cooker: Place chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Make the Sauce: In a bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup, dry onion soup mix, chicken broth, and mushrooms. Pour over the chicken.
Cook:
On LOW for 6–7 hours
Or on HIGH for 3–4 hours (Until chicken is tender and cooked through)
Finish with Sour Cream: Stir in the sour cream during the last 15–20 minutes of cooking for a rich, creamy finish.
Serve: Spoon the creamy mushroom sauce over the chicken and serve with:
Mashed potatoes
Rice
Egg noodles
Or even over toasted bread
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
💡 Tips:
Add a handful of spinach or peas at the end for color and veggies.
Can also use cream of chicken or cream of celery for a twist.
Leftovers are amazing the next day!
