This is an easy recipe.  Just throw all the ingredients in the crockpot and in a few hours you have a great way to serve chicken!

2 or 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (could use legs or thighs or a whole chicken)
1 regular sized can whole cranberry sauce
1 envelope dry onion soup mix
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons quick cooking tapioca (Optional)
2 tablespoons brown sugar
 
Combine all the ingredients, mix well,  pour over chicken, cook for 4 hours on high or 6 to 8 hours on low.  Spoon sauce over chicken before serving. 
Enjoy!

  1. I love these crockpot recipes that you can just fix and leave—and the house always smells so good! This looks easy and delicious, Judy. Thank you!

  2. Sounds delicious! …but my family won’t wait until done! :) I can’t manage to be a slow cooker.

  3. This was DELICIOUS! Next time I will use a crock pot liner though because the sauce was hard to clean out of the crock pot.

  4. Wow, this looks absolutely delicious. Definitely my kind of recipe: put in a slow cooker and come back to it after a day of work!

    I will definitely try this next week after we’ve done the weekly shop!

  5. I made this for my family tonight. It was DELICIOUS. I can’t wait to try more recipes from your blog. Sooooo yummy.

  6. This looks so delicious and I love using crockpot because all you need to do is dump everything in and you’re able to have a yummy meal right after work or the next day when you wake up! ;)

    PS: I think I’ll need to invest in a bigger one now as both my girls are grown up. That small mini crockpot I have was to cook baby porridge for my girls when they were able to have solid foods. :P
    Have a great weekend!

    • I could not live without my crockpots! I have five. I use them at Thanksgiving and Christmas to keep stuff warm and also to cook in. Love my crockpots!

      • Gosh! FIVE crockpots!? That’s really alot (to me)! But I love your idea using all your crockpots to keep your food warm during these occasions. ;)

  7. I just love my crockpot… this looks like such a quick recipe too. It’s 7:30 a.m. here and I’m starving… this looks sooo delicious!!

  8. This would be so perfect for Thanksgiving leftovers.

  9. [...] adventure in slow cooking! This week it is Cranberry Chicken. I used this recipe. Note to self- I’m never buying Chicken thighs again. They are much too fatty. When I got [...]

  10. This looks really good. Serve it with pecan rice and green beans….yum

  11. Okay, now you’ve got me intrigued with this recipe…will pull out my new crockpot ( I got a nice fancy on last year that has the timers on in and adjusts the heat…compared to the 2 old hand-me-downs I use for get togethers)…Sound good…

  12. I’ve been making a version of this recipe for many years. I make rice so I can put some of the sauce over that too.

  13. Made this tonight. Served it with mashed potatoes and sugar snap peas. I used skinless thighs, because thats what I had. It was VERY GOOD. I can see this on pork chops too. Thanks for a great recipe.
