Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 packet of ranch dressing mix

1 cup of chicken broth

1 cup of cream cheese (softened)

1 cup of sliced mushrooms (optional)

1 cup of chopped spinach (fresh or frozen)

2 cloves of garlic (minced)

1 teaspoon of onion powder

1 teaspoon of paprika

Salt and black pepper to taste

Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken: Begin by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, onion powder, and paprika.

    Mix Ranch Base: In a mixing bowl, combine the ranch dressing mix, chicken broth, and softened cream cheese. Stir this mixture until well blended and creamy.

      Layer in Slow Cooker: Place the seasoned chicken breasts at the bottom of your slow cooker. Pour the ranch mixture over the chicken, ensuring it's evenly coated.

        Add Veggies: If using, scatter mushrooms and chopped spinach over the top of the chicken and ranch sauce, and sprinkle the minced garlic on top.

          Cook: Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

            Shred the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken back into the slow cooker, mixing it thoroughly with the sauce and veggies.

              Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. This dish pairs perfectly with rice, pasta, or a slice of crusty bread!
