Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 oz packet dry ranch dressing mix
  • 1 oz packet dry au jus gravy mix
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter 1 stick
  • 5-6 jarred peperoncini peppers

Notes

  • For chicken, boneless skinless breasts are preferred though skinless thighs work too; avoid bone-in chicken. You can substitute peperoncini peppers with banana peppers without changing the flavor much. Ranch dip mix can replace the seasoning packets, but avoid liquid ranch. Brown gravy mix is an easy alternative to au jus. For a stovetop version, combine all ingredients in a large pot with 1 cup chicken broth, simmer covered over medium-low heat for up to 4 hours, then shred the chicken. Store leftovers in an airtight container refrigerated for 3-4 days.
