Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Place the boneless skinless chicken thighs at the base of your slow cooker, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  2. Chop the carrots, celery, and onion into bite-sized pieces, layering them atop the chicken.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the chicken stock, au jus mix, chicken gravy mix, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until well combined and smooth.
  4. Pour the gravy mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetables in the slow cooker, ensuring everything is well-coated.
  5. Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it on low for 6 hours or high for 4 hours.
