Whenever I have leftover rotisserie chicken in the fridge, I make this cozy chicken gravy over rice. The gravy is light and velvety—not thick or heavy—and it’s the kind of comfort food that’s perfect over fluffy white rice. It’s simple, cozy, and always a family favorite. 

Save this easy rotisserie chicken recipe for later!

Cozy Chicken Gravy Over Rice

Ingredients

For the chicken gravy:

* 2 tbsp butter
* 2 tsp avocado or olive oil
* ½ medium yellow onion, finely diced
* 1 medium carrot, finely grated
* 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
* 2 cups water
* 1½ tsp Better Than Bouillon Roasted Chicken Base
* 1 tsp Vegeta seasoning (or more to taste)
* ¼ tsp black pepper
* ¾ cup sour cream
* 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

For serving:

* Cooked white rice

Instructions

1. Cook the white rice according to the package directions.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter with the oil. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3 minutes until softened.
3. Stir in the grated carrot and continue cooking for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are tender.
4. Add the shredded rotisserie chicken and toss everything together.
5. Pour in the water, then stir in the Better Than Bouillon, Vegeta seasoning, and black pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 6–8 minutes, allowing the flavors to come together and the liquid to reduce slightly.
6. Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the sour cream and stir until smooth and fully incorporated.
7. Return the skillet to low heat and cook for another 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently. Avoid boiling the gravy after adding the sour cream.
8. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, then stir in the fresh parsley.
9. Spoon the chicken gravy over warm white rice and serve.
