Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix (1 oz)
- 1 block cream cheese (8 oz), softened
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled (optional)
- 6 sandwich buns
- Optional toppings: shredded lettuce, sliced pickles, sliced cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the Crock Pot. Sprinkle the ranch seasoning mix evenly over the chicken.
- Add the Cream Cheese: Add the block of softened cream cheese on top of the chicken breasts.
- Pour in the Chicken Broth: Pour the chicken broth over the chicken and cream cheese to create a creamy sauce.
- Cook the Chicken: Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours, or until the chicken is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
- Shred the Chicken: Once cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the Crock Pot. Mix the chicken and sauce together until evenly combined.
- Add Bacon (Optional): If desired, crumble the cooked bacon and stir it into the shredded chicken mixture.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Toast the sandwich buns, if preferred. Spoon the creamy ranch chicken mixture onto the buns and top with optional toppings like shredded lettuce, sliced pickles, or sliced cheese.

Notes
- For a lighter version, you can use low-fat cream cheese and skip the bacon.
- You can adjust the seasoning to taste, adding more ranch mix if you prefer a stronger flavor.
- These sandwiches are great served with a side of crispy fries or a fresh salad.
