Whether you just don't feel like cooking or you have a busy day ahead of you, this slow cooker chicken is the perfect solution. All you have to do is throw four ingredients together in the crock pot with some basic seasonings and then set it and forget it. The slow cooker does all the work, creating a rich sauce from the cream of mushroom soup and sliced mushrooms, while you go about your daily routine. Serve the cooked chicken with its sauce over hot white or brown rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes. Add a salad or some steamed green beans, carrots, or spinach on the side for a well-balanced family dinner. "A fantastically easy meal to put together, this crock pot chicken is also delicious. Adding the flour thickens the sauce perfectly, and the paprika gives the dish a nice flavor. It’s a great main for a family dinner that’s versatile enough for other chicken pieces if you adjust the cook time." —Colleen Graham
