Amish Wedding Chicken-Slow Cooker 4-Ingredient
Servings: 6
Ingredients
-
3 pounds chicken thighs or breasts, no skin or bone, cut clean
-
2 cans of cream of chicken soup (each 10.5 oz)
-
1 packet (1 oz) dry ranch mix
-
4 tablespoons butter with salt, in small chunks
Amish Wedding Chicken: Directions
-
Spray oil inside a 5-6 quart slow cooker so food doesn’t stick and cleans easy.
-
Put chicken flat on the bottom. Pieces can touch a little, but keep mostly one layer for even cooking and easy pull-apart.
-
Shake ranch mix all over chicken. Cover every bit for lots of taste and green bits.
-
Spoon soup on top of chicken. Spread soft with a spoon to hide most chicken. Don’t mix—keep layers.
-
Drop butter chunks on soup. Spread them out so they melt into chicken and sauce.
-
Put lid on tight. Cook on low 6-7 hours or high 3-4 hours till chicken pulls apart with forks. Don’t peek to keep heat in.
-
Shred chicken in pot with two forks. Mix light into thick, shiny sauce from soup, ranch, and butter.
-
Taste sauce. Add tiny salt or pepper if needed—ranch and soup have flavor already. Thin with chicken broth or milk if too thick.
-
Let sit on warm 10-15 minutes to soak more taste. Edges might brown a bit for extra yummy look.
-
Serve hot over potatoes, noodles, or rice with lots of sauce. Add parsley bits for color if you want.
