Crockpot Chicken Paprika Ingredients

– Chicken: Chicken thighs and legs either bone-in or boneless, whatever you prefer.

– Cream of chicken soup:  You can also use cream of mushroom soup if you prefer.

– Onion:  A chopped onion will give an extra layer of flavor to this dish.

– Xanthan gum: This helps thicken the sauce, but if you don’t have any or can’t find it, you can leave it out. Or you can use almond flour instead.

– Paprika: Paprika adds a nice color and smoky flavor to the chicken thighs.

– Salt and pepper: Fresh sea salt and freshly ground pepper are my favorite.
