Prepare the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your crockpot.
Mix the Sauce
In a mixing bowl, combine the ranch seasoning, softened cream cheese, and chicken broth. Whisk until smooth.
Assemble and Cook
Pour the sauce over the chicken, ensuring each piece is coated.
Cover the crockpot with a lid and cook on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until the chicken is fork-tender.
Optional Add-Ins
In the last 30 minutes of cooking, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken if desired.
Stir in cooked vegetables if you want to make it a one-pot meal.
Shred or Serve Whole
For a shredded chicken dish, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the sauce. Mix well to coat every piece in the creamy ranch sauce. Alternatively, serve the chicken whole with the sauce spooned over the top.
