Ingredients
1
lb
boneless, skinless chicken breast
8
oz
cream cheese
1
packet
dry Ranch dressing mix
½
lb
bacon
cooked and crumbled
1
cup
shredded cheddar cheese
optional
½
bunch
green onions
chopped, optional
Instructions
Add the chicken breasts to the bottom of the slow cooker. Top with the cream cheese, dry Ranch seasoning mix, and cooked bacon.
Cover and cook on LOW for 6–8 hours or HIGH for 4 hours, until the chicken is tender.
Remove the lid and shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker using two forks. Stir to combine.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and green onions over the chicken. Serve as desired.
Notes
For best results, cook on LOW to keep the chicken tender.
This recipe can be doubled for a crowd and freezes well for later meals.
Serve on sandwich buns, over rice or pasta, or as a dip with crackers or vegetables.
For a low-carb option, serve with lettuce wraps or on its own.
