Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts (Approximately 1.5 lbs)

Gravy and Sauce

  • 1 packet ranch dressing mix (1 oz)
  • 1 packet brown gravy mix (1 oz)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup (10.5 oz can)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste

Garnish

  • Chopped parsley (for garnish)

Optional

  • Chopped onions or garlic (optional for extra flavor)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the crockpot in an even layer to ensure even cooking.
  2. Mix the Sauce: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the ranch dressing mix, brown gravy mix, chicken broth, and cream of chicken soup until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Combine in Crockpot: Pour the prepared sauce mixture over the chicken breasts, making sure each piece is well coated with the gravy mixture.
  4. Cook Low and Slow: Cover and cook on low heat for 6 hours, or until the chicken is fully cooked through and tender enough to shred easily.
  5. Shred the Chicken: Using two forks, shred the cooked chicken directly in the crockpot to allow it to soak up the flavorful gravy.
  6. Add Sour Cream and Season: Stir in the sour cream into the shredded chicken and gravy mixture. Season with salt and pepper to your taste, mixing thoroughly so the sour cream is fully incorporated.
  7. Serve and Garnish: Serve the chicken and gravy over prepared rice or mashed potatoes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
  8. Optional Flavor Boost: For additional depth of flavor, consider adding chopped onions or garlic into the crockpot at the beginning of cooking.
  9. Storage Tip: Leftovers can be frozen for future meals. Store in an airtight container and reheat thoroughly before serving.

Notes

  • Cooking times may vary based on your crockpot model; ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safety.
  • Adding onions or garlic enhances flavor but is optional based on preference or dietary restrictions.
  • This recipe is great for meal prep and freezes well for up to 3 months.
  • Serve with your favorite side dishes such as rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables to complete the meal.
  • Adjust seasoning at the end to suit your taste preference.
