Crock Pot Creamy Ranch Chicken

Our family loves chicken and I am always looking for ways to jazz up plain chicken. This recipe for Crockpot Chicken with ranch is so easy and out of this world amazing.

You are not going to believe how simple this recipe is. Literally everything gets tossed into the slow cooker and dinner will be waiting when you come home.

Ingredients for recipe: chicken, potatoes, carrots, cream of chicken soup, ranch mix, milk.

Tips:

  • If the sauce seems to separate once chicken is cooked, just remove the chicken and vegetables from the crock pot. Whisk the sauce together and it should solve that problem.

    You can then add the chicken back to the slow cooker.

What to serve with Creamy ranch chicken?

  • Steamed Broccoli. Only 3 minutes and you can have a great side dish. It is tasty and perfect for busy weeknights.
  • Garlic Bread Cheese Sticks -Garlic bread stuffed with cheese is the perfect bread to serve with this chicken. It is perfect for dipping and so delicious.

Variation ideas

  • Try mixing it up with the vegetables. Green beans are yummy with the chicken. This would also be a great way to make this a one pot meal.
  • Use chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts. You can even mix both together.
  • Try using red potatoes. These are delicious in this one pot meal.
  • Add a second can of cream of chicken soup. You can add an extra can if you like even more sauce.
  • Add chicken broth. The consistency can be thinned by adding chicken broth.
  • Use cauliflower instead of potatoes. If you are trying to reduce carbs, use cauliflower as a substitution for the potatoes. The rich gravy makes even cauliflower tasty.
  • Omit the potatoes. Skip the potatoes in the crock pot and serve this recipe over mashed potatoes, egg noodles or rice.
  • Cream Soup. More ideas include: cream of mushroom and cream of celery. Another idea is to mix two different types of soup in this recipe.

How to store

Put leftovers inside an airtight container. Place in the fridge up to 5 days.

How to reheat

You can reheat individual servings in the microwave for 60 seconds or until heated through. If the sauce separates, just whisk it until creamy.

This is great for lunch later in the week. We all fight over who gets the leftovers. It really is that delicious.

Make this a freezer meal.

You can make this ahead of time so all you have to do is toss and go in the crock pot.

Put the chicken in a freezer bag. Then mix together the sauce and pour in the bag over the chicken.

Freeze until ready to cook. Do not add the potatoes and carrots until you are ready to put in the slow cooker.

Cook as normal and enjoy. This is a great way to cut down on a portion of the prep time.

I like to cook one batch and freeze another. It really is not any more work since you have all of the ingredients out. Plus, you will have another easy meal for later.

    Delish

  2. Carrie Barnard says:

    I haven’t tried it in an oven yet.

  3. Diane says:

    can I make this in a conventional oven? If so, what temperature and for how long?

  4. Carrie Barnard says:

    I would cook on high pressure for 20 minutes with a quick release.

  5. Brandy says:

    If you were to cook this in the instant pot, how long should you cook it?

  6. Kenneth Hoffman says:

    While a good starting place, at our house we’ll need to add more seasoning. We used Campbell’s Soup & Ranch seasoning package, not off-brand products. Everyone’s taste is a little different. I did think the cream of chicken would add enough sodium.

    We’ll tweak it to our taste next time since it is a quick & easy recipe.

    I love this recipe, but I buy cheaper skin on thighs + brown them first.

  8. Carrie Barnard says:

    Hey Liz! Each batch is different so it’s difficult to put an exact size on a serving. This recipe serves 6 people, so 1 serving is approximately 1/6 of the entire meal.

  9. Liz Jones says:

    What is the serving size?

  10. Carrie Barnard says:

    I hope you love it!
