Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs for extra juiciness!) 🍗
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup (for a rich, creamy texture!) 🥣
- 1 packet (1 oz) ranch dressing mix (adds a tangy, herby flavor!) 🌿
- 1 cup chicken broth (keeps the chicken moist & enhances the gravy!) 🍵
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder (adds depth of flavor!) 🧄
- ½ teaspoon onion powder (for a subtle sweetness!) 🧅
- Salt and pepper to taste 🧂
- ½ cup sour cream (optional, for extra creaminess!) 🥛
Preparation:
1️⃣ Prepare the Slow Cooker
- Lightly grease your crockpot/slow cooker with cooking spray.
- Lay the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crockpot.
2️⃣ Mix the Gravy
- In a medium bowl, whisk together: cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, ranch dressing mix, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the gravy mixture over the chicken.
3️⃣ Slow Cook to Perfection
Cover and cook on:
- Low for 6–7 hours (for extra tender chicken!)
- High for 3–4 hours (if you’re short on time!)
4️⃣ Shred the Chicken & Thicken the Gravy
- Once cooked, shred the chicken using two forks and stir it back into the gravy.
- If using, stir in the sour cream for an extra creamy consistency.
- Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
