Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken breasts
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- 8 slices bacon
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 3 tablespoons green onions, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of a slow cooker.
Season the chicken with salt and black pepper for added flavor.
Add the cream cheese and ranch seasoning mix on top of the chicken.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until the chicken is tender and easily shredded.
While the chicken is cooking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy.
Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain the excess grease, then crumble it once it has cooled.
When the chicken is done, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks.
Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and mix it well with the melted cream cheese and ranch mixture.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon to the slow cooker and stir until the cheese is melted and everything is well combined.
Sprinkle the chopped green onions over the top before serving for a fresh garnish.
