Description
Tender shredded chicken slow-cooked in a rich, savory gravy made with ranch seasoning, cream of chicken soup, and chicken gravy mix. A comforting, hands-off crockpot meal perfect with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
Ingredients
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
1 packet (1 oz) dry ranch seasoning mix
2 packets (0.87 oz each) chicken gravy mix
1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Optional: chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ranch seasoning, chicken gravy mix, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, and black pepper until smooth.
- Place the chicken in the bottom of the crockpot.
- Pour the prepared gravy mixture over the chicken, ensuring it is fully coated.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or on HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the chicken is tender and shreds easily.
- Remove the chicken, shred it with two forks, and return it to the crockpot. Stir to combine with the gravy.
- Serve hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
