Method
 

How to Make Ranch Chicken Crock Pot
  1. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat and sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown.
  2. In your crockpot, mix together the cream of chicken soup, ranch seasoning, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until everything is well blended and creamy.
  3. Carefully place the seared or raw chicken breasts into the crockpot, ensuring they are fully coated with the sauce mixture.
  4. Cover and set your crockpot to LOW for 6-7 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
  5. Once cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the crockpot and mix it into the creamy sauce.
  6. Stir in the sour cream until you achieve that creamy consistency.
  7. Garnish with shredded cheddar cheese and fresh parsley if desired, and enjoy!
