For an even richer flavor, try browning the chicken breasts in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. If you prefer a smoother gravy, use an immersion blender to eliminate any lumps. Customize the herbs and spices to your liking. Thyme, oregano, or paprika would also be delicious additions. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
