Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 packet au jus gravy mix
  • 1 packet ranch dressing mix
  • ½ cup (1 stick) salted butter
  • 6 peperoncini peppers

Method
 

  1. Place the chicken breasts evenly in the base of your slow cooker.
  2. Sprinkle the au jus gravy mix and ranch dressing mix over the chicken, ensuring even coverage.
  3. Add the stick of salted butter on top of the seasoned chicken.
  4. Scatter the peperoncini peppers over everything.
  5. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 6 to 8 hours, allowing the chicken to cook in its own flavorful juices.
  6. Once cooked, shred the chicken with two forks directly in the slow cooker and mix well.
  7. Serve the shredded chicken warm as desired.

Notes

  • For a more affordable variation, chicken thighs can be used instead of breasts. If using thighs, reduce the butter to half since thighs have more fat. Refer to the FAQ and ingredient list for more substitutions or common questions.
