Description

This Slow Cooker Creamy Ranch Chicken is an effortless comfort meal made with just five ingredients. Rich, savory, and perfect over mashed potatoes, noodles, or rice, it’s ideal for busy days when you still want a homemade dinner.


Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 packet ranch seasoning mix

1 can condensed cream of chicken soup

8 ounces cream cheese, softened

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, optional


Instructions

1. Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker.

2. In a bowl, mix the ranch seasoning, condensed cream of chicken soup, and softened cream cheese until combined.

3. Pour the mixture evenly over the chicken.

4. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.

5. Shred the chicken with two forks if desired, then stir it into the sauce.

6. Serve warm over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles, and garnish with parsley if using.

Notes

Use full-fat cream cheese for the smoothest sauce.

Thaw the chicken before cooking for more even results.

Add a splash of milk or broth when reheating to loosen the sauce.
