Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by placing your boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the bottom of your crockpot. Arrange them in a single layer for even cooking.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the ranch dressing mix, brown gravy mix, chicken broth, and cream of chicken soup. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  3. Pour the prepared gravy mixture evenly over the chicken in the crockpot, ensuring the chicken is well coated.
  4. Cover the crockpot with its lid and set it to cook on low heat for 6 hours.
  5. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the crockpot and shred it into bite-sized pieces using two forks.
  6. Stir in the sour cream, mixing thoroughly until it’s integrated and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Spoon the chicken and gravy over a bed of fluffy rice or creamy mashed potatoes. Garnish with chopped parsley or fresh herbs before serving.

Notes

Consider searing the chicken before adding it to the crockpot for enhanced flavor. Leftovers store beautifully and can be reheated gently for future meals.
