The crockpot is one of the greatest inventions (along with the Instant Pot). For example, we’re able to speed a recipe up or slow it down so that we can enjoy ourselves outside the kitchen. With very little effort, you can have a delicious meal in no time. It’s pretty darn amazing, don’t you agree?
Ingredients for recipe:
- boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- chicken broth
- cream of mushroom soup
- sliced mushrooms
- salt and pepper
How to make Easy Crockpot Chicken Recipe
1. Place chicken in crockpot and season with salt and pepper.
2. Mix soup, broth, and mushrooms in a bowl.
3. Pour soup mixture over the chicken breasts. Sprinkle with additional mushrooms.
4. Cover and cook on the desired temperature (see full recipe below).
How long does it take to cook chicken in the crockpot?
Chicken will usually cook on low for 6-7 hours or high for 3-4 hours. Above all, be sure the chicken is cooked through. Most importantly, be sure the meat reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit, at a minimum.
If you don’t overfill the crockpot with ingredients, raw chicken will usually cook in 4-6 hours on low. However, it’s important to note that the more sauce you have in the pot and fewer pieces of chicken, a shorter cook time is needed.

I’ve been making something similar to this for years. Only, I use the microwave. You cook your chicken breasts (cut up or whole), in 1/2 stick melted butter, until just barely pink. Whole breasts will take longer. While that is cooking mix mushroom soup (2 cans) and 1/2 can milk until well blended( add more milk if you like thinner gravy. Add mushrooms. Remove chicken from pan and stir pan juices and mushroom soup mix until well blended. Return chicken to pan and turn to coat. Cook until chicken is done. Place swiss cheese slices on top of mixture, top with French fried onion rings (I use Durkee’s) Heat until cheese is melted. Serve over flat noodles or rice. It is yummy too. I will try your method though. Not as much work. The Slow cooker does it all for you. Thank you for a great recipe.
