Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts Choose fresh or thawed for the best texture.
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup Adds a luscious creaminess.
  • 1 cup chicken broth For extra depth of flavor; low-sodium optional.

  • to taste none salt and pepper Simple seasonings that elevate the dish.
  • optional none chopped parsley For garnish and freshness.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of your slow cooker, giving them space.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  3. Gently pour the sauce over the chicken, covering it well.
  4. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours until the chicken is tender.
  5. Once cooked, shred the chicken using two forks and stir it back into the sauce.
  6. Sprinkle with chopped parsley, serve warm, and enjoy.

Notes

For best results, use quality ingredients. You can sear the chicken in a skillet first for added flavor. This dish can be made ahead and stored in the fridge, and it freezes well for about 3 months.
