This is a twist on regular old baked chicken. It has more flavor, an easy sauce/gravy, and can be cut up and put over rice or mashed potatoes. I typically serve it with a side of streamed veggies and paleo biscuits or sautéed sweet potatoes. Have fun with it and use it anyway your creativity wants. It’s delicious with a little freshly grated Parmesan on top.

Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

In a slow cooker or Instant pot add chicken and pour broth over. Add salt, pepper, paprika, garlic, onion, and celery.
Cook on slow for 4 hours. Or you can cook on high pressure for 12 minutes and let pressure release naturally.
When chicken is done (165 degrees internal temperature), remove it from the pot.
Using an emersion blender carefully blend the sauce in the pan.
In a small bowl combine 2 Tbsp chicken broth and arrowroot powder, stir until smooth.
Add cream cheese and arrowroot powder mix. Blend again until smooth.
Replace chicken and let cook on low for 5-10 minutes until sauce thickens up.
Plate up and spoon over sauce/gravy.

Notes

You can cut the raw chicken into large cubes if your finished dish needs it cut up. Cooking time would be decreased by about 1/2. You can replace the cream cheese and use sour cream or Greek yogurt as well. I typically use whichever I have handy in the fridge.
