Kitchen Equipment Needed:
- Slow cooker
- Mixing bowl
- Whisk or spoon
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Cutting board
- Knife
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix (about 1 ounce)
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened and cubed
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions:
- Prepare the slow cooker: Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker.
- Season the chicken: Sprinkle the ranch seasoning mix, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper evenly over the chicken breasts.
- Add cream cheese: Place the cream cheese cubes on top of the seasoned chicken.
- Add broth: Pour chicken broth around the chicken without washing away the seasonings.
- Cook the chicken: Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and can be easily shredded.
- Shred the chicken: Once the chicken is fully cooked, shred it in the slow cooker using two forks. Stir the mixture so the chicken combines with the melted cream cheese and seasonings.
- Add cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken and stir it in. Cover and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese melts and the mixture is creamy.
- Garnish and serve: If desired, sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving. Serve over rice, pasta, or with your favorite side.
