Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 2 pounds Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs Keep moist and flavorful during slow cooking; substitute with chicken breasts for a leaner option.
For the Vegetables
  • 3 medium Carrots Adds sweetness and vibrant color; feel free to swap with baby carrots or diced potatoes based on availability.
  • 2 stalks Celery Offers flavor and texture; must be fresh for best results.
  • 1 medium Onion Provides depth of flavor; can be replaced with shallots for a milder taste.
For the Gravy
  • 4 cups Chicken Stock Essential for moisture and base flavor; chicken broth or bone broth are suitable substitutes.
  • 1 packet Au Jus Mix Contributes rich, beefy flavor despite using chicken; may use ranch seasoning for a different taste profile.
  • 1 packet Chicken Gravy Mix Thickens the sauce, enhancing texture; not necessary if you'd prefer a thinner consistency.
For Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder Adds aromatic depth; can be replaced with fresh minced garlic, just adjust the quantity accordingly.
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder Enhances overall onion flavor.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper Balances richness; adjust to taste.

Step-by-Step Instructions for Crockpot Chicken Pot Roast
  1. Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients - Start by chopping the carrots, celery, and onion into bite-sized pieces. Place the boneless skinless chicken thighs at the bottom of your slow cooker, arranging them to create a base. Layer the chopped vegetables evenly over the chicken.
  2. Step 2: Mix the Gravy Ingredients - In a separate bowl, combine the chicken stock, au jus mix, chicken gravy mix, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Step 3: Combine and Cook - Pour the gravy mixture over the chicken and vegetables in the slow cooker. Gently stir to coat the ingredients evenly. Cover with the lid and set your slow cooker to low for 6 hours or high for 4 hours.
  4. Step 4: Garnish and Serve - Once the cooking time is complete, carefully remove the lid. Optionally, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top. Serve your delicious Crockpot Chicken Pot Roast over creamy mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
