Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups Chicken broth
- 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of chicken soup
- 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of mushroom soup
- 2 cups Frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
- 1 piece Green bell pepper, diced
- 1 piece Onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Whole milk
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of the crock pot.
Pour in the chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and cream of mushroom soup. Stir gently to combine.
Add the frozen mixed vegetables, diced green bell pepper, and chopped onion to the crock pot.
Season with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, ensuring the seasoning is evenly distributed.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 5 hours or until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
After 5 hours, carefully remove the chicken breasts from the crock pot and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the crock pot and stir well.
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Whisk in the all-purpose flour to create a roux. Cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Gradually whisk in the whole milk to the roux, ensuring no lumps form. Continue to cook the mixture until it thickens into a creamy sauce, about 3–4 minutes.
Pour the creamy sauce into the crock pot and stir to combine with the chicken mixture.
Cover and continue cooking for an additional 15–20 minutes to allow the sauce to fully blend with the dish.
Serve the Chicken a La King over rice, toast, or warm biscuits for a satisfying meal.
