Ingredients
Scale
Chicken
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Sauce
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 packet (1 oz) ranch dressing mix
- 1 cup (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- Salt and pepper to taste
Topping
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the crockpot: Place the chicken breasts evenly at the bottom of the crockpot to form a base layer for the sauce.
- Mix the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, ranch dressing mix, softened cream cheese, and chicken broth. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add sauce over chicken: Pour the creamy sauce evenly over the chicken breasts, making sure they are well covered. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste.
- Cook: Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, allowing the chicken to become tender and flavorful.
- Add cheese topping: About 30 minutes before serving, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top of the chicken. Cover the crockpot again and cook until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Serve the angel chicken over rice or pasta to soak up the delicious sauce for a complete meal.
