Ingredients
  

  • 1 large yellow onion
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 10.5 oz condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1 oz onion soup mix
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 6 - 8 slices provolone cheese
  • ½ teaspoon thyme leaves
  • 1 cup French's crispy fried onions

Instructions
 

  • Spray the inside of the Crock Pot with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  • Sprinkle the sliced onion evenly in the bottom to form a flavorful base.
  • Place the boneless chicken breasts on top of the onions in a single layer.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the condensed cream of chicken soup, onion soup mix, and beef broth. Whisk until well mixed, then pour over the chicken.
  • Cover the Crock Pot and set it to LOW. Cook for 5 hours.
  • After 5 hours, layer the provolone cheese slices over the chicken and cook for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Remove the lid, sprinkle with thyme leaves and crispy fried onions. Cook on LOW with no lid for about 10 more minutes to crisp up the toppings.
  • Serve over cooked noodles or rice and enjoy!

Notes

  • Layer flavors with onions, use fresh ingredients for better taste, avoid lifting the lid during cooking, adjust cooking time for frozen chicken, and add mushrooms or bell peppers for variation.
