Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 packet (1 oz) ranch dressing mix

1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup

1 cup chicken broth

1 cup sour cream

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup frozen peas (optional)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of the crockpot.

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ranch dressing mix, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until fully blended.

      Pour the creamy ranch mixture over the chicken in the crockpot, ensuring the chicken is well-coated.

        Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the chicken is tender and easily shredded.

          Once cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken right inside the crockpot. Stir to combine it with the creamy sauce.

            If desired, add frozen peas and cook on high for an additional 15 minutes until heated through.

              Just before serving, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top and allow it to melt for about 5 minutes.

                Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
