This 4-ingredient slow cooker Sunday family feast chicken is the kind of easy, comforting supper that fits right into a busy life. It starts with frozen chicken breasts and just three pantry-friendly helpers, then the crock pot does the rest. The idea reminds me of the old Midwestern church potlucks, where a few simple ingredients could turn into something everyone lined up for and asked to take home.
You literally toss everything into the slow cooker in the morning and come back to tender, juicy chicken in a rich, creamy gravy that tastes like you fussed all day.
Serve this chicken spooned over fluffy mashed potatoes, buttered egg noodles, or steamed white rice so that every drop of the creamy gravy has somewhere to go. On the side, simple vegetables work best: green beans with a little butter, sweet corn, or a tossed salad. Warm dinner rolls or biscuits are wonderful for mopping up the sauce, and if you like, a dish of cranberry sauce or sliced pickles adds a bright, tangy contrast to the richness of the meal.
