Equipment

  • Crockpot
  • Two Forks
  • Measuring spoons
  • Small Knife
  • Mixing Spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs CHICKEN BREASTS
  • 1 packet RANCH SEASONING
  • 8 oz CREAM CHEESE
  • 4 tbsp BUTTER
  • 1/2 cup CHICKEN BROTH
  • 1 tsp GARLIC POWDER
  • 1 tsp ONION POWDER

Instructions
 

Step 1:

  • Wash your hands with soap first. Dry them with a clean towel. Get your chicken out of the fridge. Place the meat in the crockpot. Lay the pieces in a flat row. Do not stack them too high.

Step 2:

  • Open one packet of ranch seasoning. Sprinkle the powder over the meat. Cover every inch of the chicken. This adds a lot of flavor. It smells like herbs and spices.

Step 3:

  • Take your cold block of butter. Cut it into small even cubes. Place them on top of the chicken. The butter will melt slowly. It makes the sauce very rich.

Step 4:

  • Get your block of cream cheese. Cut it into four large pieces. Place them in the crockpot. They will melt into the sauce. This makes the meal very creamy.

Step 5:

  • Measure out your chicken broth now. Pour it slowly into the pot. Do not pour it on the spices. Aim for the sides of the pot. This keeps the meat very moist.

Step 6:

  • Put the heavy lid on top. Turn the dial to low heat. Set a timer for six hours. Do not open the lid yet. Let the steam stay inside.

Step 7:

  • Check the chicken after six hours. Use a fork to test it. The meat should pull apart easily. Take the meat out of the pot. Place it on a clean plate.

Step 8:

  • Use two forks to shred it. Pull the meat into small pieces. Put the chicken back in the pot. Stir it into the creamy sauce. Make sure it is well mixed.

Notes

Use a liner in your crockpot for very easy cleanup.
Add cooked bacon bits at the end for extra crunch.
Mix in some fresh parsley for a bright green color.
Serve this over pasta for a very filling family meal.
Add red pepper flakes if you want a spicy kick.
Keep the lid closed to keep the heat inside.
