Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • ¾ cup cooked and chopped bacon
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can unsalted cream of chicken soup
  • ½ cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 (1 oz) packet ranch dressing mix
  • 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  • Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts and cooked bacon in the slow cooker.
  • Make the Sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream cheese, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, ranch dressing mix, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until smooth and well combined.
  • Cook: Pour the sauce over the chicken and bacon in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 6 hours until the chicken is tender.
  • Serve: Serve the chicken whole or shred it and mix it with the sauce. Enjoy over pasta, rice, or potatoes.

Notes

  • Protein Variations: You can use boneless, skinless chicken thighs or tenderloins instead of chicken breasts.
  • Add Veggies: Try adding spinach, broccoli, or other vegetables for extra nutrition.
  • Adjust Seasoning: If you're sensitive to ranch seasoning, start with half the packet and adjust to taste.
  • Storage & Freezing: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. For freezing, let the chicken cool completely, then transfer it to a freezer-safe bag. It will keep for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop.
