Ingredients

2 cups cooked chicken breast 3 small breasts
2 tablespoon of butter
1/2 pack ranch seasoning mix
4 oz cream cheese softened.
1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 cup Broccoli (or a 10.8oz steam bag)
2/3 cup chicken broth

  1. I cooked my chicken first in a slow cooker on high for 3.5 hrs with a little chicken broth and salt/pepper.
  2. Remove chicken from the slow cooker and shred.
  3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  4. In an oven-safe skillet melt 2 tablespoons butter.
  5. Next, add ranch seasoning, cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, chicken broth, 1/4 cup crumbled bacon, and 1/2 cup cheese.
