Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1.5 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 8 strips Bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 packet Ranch seasoning mix
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on all sides.
Place the seasoned chicken breasts in the bottom of a crock pot.
Sprinkle the ranch seasoning mix evenly over the chicken.
Cut the cream cheese into small cubes and distribute it over the chicken.
Pour the chicken broth into the crock pot, ensuring it covers the bottom but does not submerge the chicken.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 5-6 hours or until the chicken is tender and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).
Once the chicken is cooked, remove the lid and use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the crock pot or leave it whole, based on preference.
Stir the mixture to combine the cream cheese and chicken broth into a creamy sauce.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon to the crock pot, stirring to mix everything evenly.
Cover the crock pot and cook for an additional 20-30 minutes on low, or until the cheese is melted and gooey.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm with your choice of side dishes like rice, pasta, or steamed vegetables.
