Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 packet (1 ounce) of dry ranch dressing mix
- 1 packet (0.87 ounces) of chicken gravy mix
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) of condensed cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup of low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
- 2 tablespoons cold water (optional, for thickening)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your crockpot.
- Make the Gravy: In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ranch dressing mix, chicken gravy mix, condensed cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined.
- Cook: Pour the gravy mixture over the chicken breasts in the crockpot. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.

- Serve: Shred the chicken in the crockpot or serve the breasts whole, spooning the gravy over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
- Pair: Serve the chicken and gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or buttered noodles for a complete meal.
