For the Sauce
  • 1 packet Ranch seasoning mix You can easily make your own homemade ranch seasoning.
  • 10.5 ounces Cream of chicken soup Opt for a non-dairy version to make it dairy-free.
  • 1 cup Chicken broth Choosing low-sodium broth is a healthier option.
  • 1 cup Sour cream Feel free to use cream cheese for a richer finish or a dairy-free alternative if desired.
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder Fresh garlic can provide a bold flavor boost if preferred.
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder This can be omitted if you prefer milder flavors.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper Adjust to your personal taste level.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Optionally sear the chicken in a skillet with olive oil over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  2. In a crock pot, combine cream of chicken soup, ranch seasoning mix, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Stir thoroughly.
  3. Place the seared or raw chicken breasts into the crock pot, ensuring they are coated with the sauce mixture. Cover with the lid.
  4. Set your crock pot to cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours until fully cooked and fork-tender.
