Step 1

Mix soup, dressing mix and gravy mix together in a small bowl. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium-hight heat. Add oil and heat through. Add the chicken parts and brown well on all sides. Remove from pan and add the chicken to the crock pot (4-6 quart).

Step 3

Spread the soup mixture over the chicken parts.

Step 4

Deglaze the pan with the water (scrape up all the browned bits from the chicken). Add this liquid to the crock pot.

Step 5

Cover and cook on low 4-6 hours, high 3-5 hours. TIMES ARE APPROXIMATE! All cookers cook differently.

Step 6

Remove chicken and stir the gravy. Pour gravy over chicken or serve separately so everyone can add their own.
