A super simple slow cooked chicken in a lush creamy herb gravy :)
This recipe is for fillets but would adapt easily to chicken pieces if you prefer

Prep Time 5 minutes mins
Cook Time 4 hours hrs 30 minutes mins
Total Time 4 hours hrs 35 minutes mins
- 1kg of chicken thigh fillets (or chicken cut of your choice)
- 1 tsp of dried rosemary
- 1 tsp of dried thyme
- 1 sachet of instant supreme/roast chicken gravy (no water added to gravy)
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 200ml cooking cream
Place whole, raw chicken fillets into slow cooker (dice if you prefer)
Sprinkle herbs over chicken
Sprinkle dry gravy mix over chicken
Add half a cup of water over the top of chicken (no mixing needed)
Cook on low for 4hrs
Gently remove chicken after moving it around in dish to disperse any gravy mix still on top of chicken, and set aside briefly
Add cream to slow cooker, whisk to combine well (see notes below) then return chicken to gravy
Cook for an additional 30 minutes to heat gravy through
Notes
If you feel it's needed you could also add 2 tsp of cornflour in with cream to thicken gravy further but we didn't need to
Serve with mashed potato and steamed seasonal veg for simple dinner the whole family will love
