This was a great slow cooker meal. I had to make a few changes because of the ingredients I had on hand. I used Yukon gold potatoes, chicken breasts and garlic powder. I added an onion. I also used a whole packet of onion soup mix and a dash of dried thyme. Very flavorful. We put it on some mashed potatoes. Delicious gravy.

Used recommendations to add more flavor like celery and onion but still very bland. None of the 5 of us liked it.
Charles Gomez
For such a simple recipe,it was very good. I did not have carrots, but followed recipe otherwise. It tastes a lot like chicken and dumplings!. It did cook faster, done in 3 hours. Will make again
Phillip Barrett
Absolutely delicious and I will definitely make this again!
Lauren Cunningham
I added onions, bell pepper, celery, thyme and garlic powder in place of garlic salt. It was great!!!

I didn’t have regular cream of mushroom soup. Used Trader Joe’s Condensed Portabello Mushroom soup. Added onion. Used 1 tsp garlic powder instead of garlic salt, added a pinch of salt. This came out great and the Portabello added a lot of flavor. Didn’t need to thicken. Used 2 thick pork chops but same amount of sauce. Delicious over rice. Will make again.

I made this with chicken leg quarters which I removed the skin/fat from. The only changes I made was both cans of soup were cream of chicken and I used whole carrots, peeled and cut into chunks, and added an onion cut into wedges. I also used seasonings as follows: 1 tsp onion powder, garlic powder, garlic pepper, and Natures Seasoning. The spices I mixed in with the soup before pouring over the chicken. Cooked on high for 5 hours. Yum!!! It’s a keeper!!!

The chicken and vegetables were nicely cooked but the flavour was pretty bland.
Jacob Grant
I love slow-cooked chicken, so I tried this – it is good. I used bone-in leg quarters, and I added celery. I substituted cream of celery soup for cream of mushroom. Served with hot sourdough rolls, it was a tasty home-cooked comfort dinner!

I’ve made this easy, delicious chicken recipe a few times now & it’s an absolute hit with the family every time I make it. The chicken always comes out so tender no matter what kind of chicken pieces I use the meat just falls apart.
Carlos Herrera
Easy family crock pot meal and delicious!
Christine Walton
For what it is–not fine fining–this is a good recipe. It’s a full meal and as another reviewer imnocook wrote, it is simple and easy. I used smallish potatoes I purchased in a bag from Costco. The chicken was done after 3 1/2 hours, but the carrots and potatoes–some of them–probably needed another 45 minutes or an hour. We don’t mind crunchy veggies, so it was fine. I may add another can of creamed soup next time, because we like the liquid/gravy, and there wasn’t really enough with two cans.
Steven Williams
It was good, but I ended up using a lot of recommendations from other users.
Robin Erickson
I used chicken breasts instead of thighs and I added frozen peas and used regular and sweet potatoes. A half hour before it was done, I thickened the sauce with equal parts of flour and water. I turned out awesome.
Justin Watts
This was an easy dinner to make & I got rave reviews from the family. I didn’t add the Potato flakes since I didn’t have any in the house but there didn’t seem to make any difference.
Robert Thomas
I added Thyme to the soup mix as well as seasoned the thighs with it as well. I also used garlic power, not salt. I did season the thighs with salt and pepper. Very flavorful and delicious. I will make again. My husband does not like chicken as a rule but he did enjoyed this meal.
Kevin Pineda
Very good. For spices used minced garlic, pepper, sage and poultry seasoning.
Carlos Wolfe
I only had frozen carrots and instead of potatoes I added peas n purple onion. Then I was gone but husband came home and I asked him to made mashed potatoes and rice pilaf. Using the sauce as gravy for the potatoes. Great taste. Didn’t have to add extra seasonings. I’d definitely make this again.
Jacob Hodge
this was very good. I added 3/4 cup chicken btoth, choped onion and used condenses mushroom with roasted garlic soup. I also added some seasoning because of other reviews.
Larry Jackson
Its all GONE…. 🙂
Veronica Jordan
I used chicken thighs with bone-in and used cream of chicken soup and cream of celery soup. It was very good.
