How to Make Frozen Chicken In The Crock Pot

  1. Spray the inside of your crock-pot with cooking spray.
  2. Rinse the frozen chicken thoroughly and place it directly into the crock-pot.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of chicken gravy, 1/2 cup of water, and 1/4 cup of dry white wine.
  4. Pour the gravy mixture evenly over the chicken.
  5. Cook on low for approximately 6 hours.
  6. Add 1 pound of carrots (chopped) and 1 medium onion (chopped) about 1 1/2 hours before the cooking time is complete.
  7. Once the cooking time is finished, carefully remove the chicken from the crock-pot and let it rest on a cutting board for at least 15 minutes before carving.
  8. Remove the carrots and onions from the cooking liquid.
  9. Strain the cooking liquid to remove any solids. Thicken the gravy to your desired consistency using a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water) or your preferred thickening method.
  10. Serve your delicious crock-pot chicken with mashed potatoes and a tossed salad. Enjoy!
