Mississippi Chicken Slow Cooker (Printer-Friendly)

Slow-cooked, juicy chicken breasts with buttery gravy, ranch seasoning, and peppers for rich, comforting flavors.

# What You’ll Need:

01 - 3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

02 - 1 packet au jus gravy mix

03 - 1 packet ranch dressing mix

04 - ½ cup (1 stick) salted butter

05 - 6 peperoncini peppers

01 - Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts evenly in the bottom of the slow cooker.

02 - Sprinkle the au jus gravy mix and ranch dressing mix evenly over the chicken.

03 - Distribute the stick of salted butter over the seasonings, then add the peperoncini peppers on top.

04 - Cover and cook on low heat for 6 to 8 hours without lifting the lid, allowing the chicken to produce its own juices.

05 - Use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the cooker, then serve as desired.

01 - For a spicier variant, add some of the peperoncini juice to the cooker; otherwise, the peppers add flavor without heat.

02 - Frozen chicken breasts can be used, but check your slow cooker's manual to ensure safety.

03 - Chicken thighs may be substituted, reducing butter quantity by half due to higher fat content.

04 - This dish is suitable for low-carb diets if served without bread.
