- 1 ounce ranch dressing mix 1 packet
- ¼ cup unsalted butter ½ stick cut into cubes
- 3 cups cooked white rice optional for serving
- *I use boneless skinless chicken breasts for this crockpot recipe but boneless thighs will work too. You should never put frozen chicken in the crockpot as this will put the chicken in the temperature danger zone for too long and could cause food poisoning. Always use fresh or fully thawed chicken. Thaw frozen chicken overnight in the refrigerator before adding it to the crockpot. Be careful not to overcook the chicken or it will become rubbery. I always check the internal temperature a bit early on in the cooking time so I know as soon as it's done (165°F). I like to add some cooked bacon bits or stir in shredded cheddar cheese at the end of the cooking time for a little something extra! Nutritional information does not include optional ingredients. Store crockpot ranch chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
