Ingredients
1 lb chicken breasts
Salt for seasoning
Pepper for seasoning
Garlic powder for seasoning
3 tbsp butter
3 tbsp flour
2 cups chicken broth
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp thyme
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
1-Getting started: Begin by prepping your ingredients to make the process smooth. Cut the 1 lb chicken breasts in half lengthwise to make them thinner, then season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder for that initial flavor boost.
2-Next: heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt the 3 tbsp butter. Add the 3 tbsp flour and stir continuously until it thickens, which takes a few minutes. This step creates a solid base for your gravy.
3-Pour in the 2 cups chicken broth and mix in the seasonings: 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, 1/2 tsp oregano, 1/2 tsp thyme, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp onion powder, and 1 tsp garlic powder. Stir everything well and let it come to a bubble, then add the seasoned chicken, making sure itβs covered by the gravy. Cover the skillet and lower the heat to medium-low.
4-Cook for 12 to 15 minutes until the chicken hits 165 degrees internally. Once done, shred the chicken right in the pan using two forks for easy mixing. Serve it over mashed potatoes, corn, and rolls for a complete meal that comes together in under 30 minutes total prep and cook time.
