Mississippi Chicken Slow Cooker (Printer-Friendly)

Slow cook chicken breasts with butter, ranch seasoning, au jus gravy, and peperoncini for a rich, tender dish.

# What You'll Need:

→ Poultry

01 - 3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

→ Seasonings

02 - 1 packet au jus gravy mix
03 - 1 packet ranch dressing mix

→ Dairy

04 - 1/2 cup (1 stick) salted butter

→ Produce

05 - 6 peperoncini peppers

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Place boneless, skinless chicken breasts at the bottom of the slow cooker.
02 - Sprinkle the au jus gravy mix and ranch dressing mix evenly over the chicken.
03 - Place the stick of salted butter on top followed by the peperoncini peppers.
04 - Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours without opening the lid to allow the chicken to retain moisture and absorb flavors.
05 - Use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the cooker and serve as desired.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Frozen chicken can be used, but check slow cooker guidelines. Reduce butter if using chicken thighs due to higher fat content.
02 - For extra flavor kick, add some peperoncini juice before cooking.
03 - Chicken produces natural juices; no additional liquid required.
