  4. Combine the Creamy Base: Mix together one can each of condensed cream of chicken soup and cream of celery soup with one cup of chicken broth until well combined and pour over the ingredients in the slow cooker.
  5. Set the Cooking Time: Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 5-7 hours until the chicken reaches 165°F internally.
