Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb cooked shredded chicken (preferably rotisserie or crockpot cooked)
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  3. In your slow cooker, add shredded chicken, bacon, chicken broth, ranch seasoning, garlic, and onion powders. Stir to combine.

  5. During the last 15 minutes, stir in heavy cream and shredded cheese until melted and smooth.
  6. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with parsley and additional cheese if desired, then serve hot.

Notes

  • Use cooked and shredded rotisserie or crockpot chicken for best flavor and convenience.
  • Stir the heavy cream and cheese in the last 15 minutes to prevent curdling.
  • Garnish with extra bacon, cheese, or green onions for added flavor.
