Ingredients
Scale
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts (approximately 1.5 lbs)
- 1 oz (1 packet) ranch dressing mix
- 1 oz (1 packet) brown gravy mix
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of chicken soup
- ½ cup sour cream
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Rinse chicken under cold water, pat dry, and place it into your slow cooker.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, sour cream, ranch dressing mix, and brown gravy mix until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the prepared creamy mixture evenly over the chicken in the crockpot, ensuring the chicken is well coated.
- Season the chicken and gravy mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
- Secure the lid tightly and cook on the LOW setting for 6-8 hours, or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fork-tender and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Carefully remove the cooked chicken from the crockpot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the crockpot, stirring it into the gravy.
- Stir gently to combine the chicken and gravy. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired, and serve hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles. Enjoy!
