Chicken:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tbsp olive oil (optional for searing)
Sauce:
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Optional Toppings:
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Fresh parsley for garnish
- Sear the Chicken: If desired, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts on both sides until golden brown (about 2-3 minutes per side). This step is optional but adds extra flavor.
- Prepare the Sauce: In the crockpot, add the cream of chicken soup, ranch seasoning, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
- Cook the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts into the crockpot and coat them with the sauce mixture. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours until the chicken is cooked through.
- Shred and Serve: Once cooked, shred the chicken with two forks and stir it into the creamy sauce. Stir in sour cream for extra creaminess and flavor. Garnish with shredded cheese and parsley, if desired.
