Slow Cooker Tribute Chicken
Servings: 4

Ingredients

• 2 pounds frozen chicken strips (keep them frozen)

• 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup

• 1 block (8 oz) frozen garlic-herb butter, chopped into 1/2-inch green chunks

• 1 packet (1 oz) ranch dressing mix

• 1/2 cup low-salt chicken broth

Slow Cooker Tribute Chicken: Directions

1. Lay the frozen chicken strips flat in a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. They can overlap a bit, but keep them mostly in one layer for even cooking.

2. In a bowl, mix the cream of chicken soup, ranch mix, and broth with a whisk until smooth. This makes a yummy sauce.

3. Pour the sauce over the chicken. Push it gently so it gets between the pieces.

4. Sprinkle the frozen green butter chunks on top in one layer. They’ll melt and make everything tasty.

5. Put on the lid. Cook on LOW for 4-5 hours or HIGH for 2.5-3 hours, until chicken hits 165°F inside and shreds easy with a fork.

6. Stir the chicken into the sauce. Shred lightly if you want. Taste and add salt or pepper. Serve hot with sauce over potatoes, noodles, rice, veggies, bread, or corn.
