Have you dusted off your slow cookers yet? Or do you use it year round like I do? I absolutely love my slow cooker. And this meal was slow cooked to perfection. Creamy and delicious and so tender that the chicken falls apart. This is my kind of meal!
Life is just busy. There is so much going on but it is so important for our family to sit down and eat together. Of course we have our macaroni and cheese and Little Ceasar’s nights, but I like to eat together each night. It took me 5 minutes to throw this meal in . So easy! It is ready right in time for dinner and it is a meal that the family will love. Tender chicken, potatoes, and carrots in a creamy ranch sauce. It will seem like you slaved in the kitchen all day for this delicious meal!

How much Ranch dressing? I buy in bulk, not just packets. Thx!
I also buy in bulk. Usually 3 Tbsp is good when a recipe calls for a packet.
Making this for supper Sunday night. Sounds delish. I think I will use cream of mushroom instead of chicken. Just prefer it, and add some onions and more mushrooms.
The sauce on this is good but the cooking times are not correct. Cooked it for 5 hrs on low. Chicken wasn’t done and potatoes were hard. Cooked on high For another two hours. Potatoes were still not done. Left the potatoes in the crockpot for another hour And they are still kinda hard.
I think this is an interesting recipe and really looks like something my husband will enjoy. So its on my list to make. One issue I have is most times the size of the crockpot is not listed, I have several. Thank you for posting it
I just bought the ingredients and am so excited to try this out! I did decide on getting an extra can of cream of chicken soup (I’m a huge fan of gravy) and just want to know if I should double the milk if I use two cans of the soup instead of one? TIA! 🙂
I am cooking this tonight and I am having the same problems as some others. It’s been cooking on low for 3 hour and the chicken is almost completely raw. I’ve changed the setting to high and am hoping adding another hour will help.
Is your crockpot older? I have never had a problem when I cook this and sometimes it cooks even faster than the time that I have given.
Made this last night for dinner, my boyfriend licked the plate clean. Very good!!
Can you use Ranch Dip packet instead of Ranch Dressing packet?
I tried this recipe for the first time tonight. I cooked it for 4 hours on high and the carrots and potatoes were still rock hard when it was dinner time:/ I’m not sure what went wrong… Maybe next time.
Did you put the vegetables on the bottom? They take longer to cook on the top and should always be put on the bottom.
I’ve had this recipe bookmarked for so long & FINALLY tried it today. I think I may have overcooked it because I’m still a crockpot newbie & was really paranoid after reading the comments. I had it going for about 7.5 hours, mostly on low, but one hour on high early on to kickstart the process. I was worried at first there wouldn’t be enough liquid to keep the veggies & chicken from scorching, but since I used frozen chicken, there ended up being plenty. Maybe too much, actually, because the flavors were a little bland. :[ I clearly have a lot to learn in slow cooking, so thanks for inspiring me to try!
When you double the soup and ranch packet mix for extra gravy, do you also double the amount of milk you use?
TIA!
