191210 - Recipe Tuesday - "Crack Chicken"

I’ve been making this recipe lately because as long as you use low fat or no fat cream cheese, this recipe is super low in fat but crazy high in flavor! I put this on a low carb tortilla, over salads, or just each it by itself with a veggie side! ENJOY!


INGREDIENTS
2 lbs boneless chicken breasts
1 (8 oz) block fat free cream cheese
1 packet of dry Ranch seasoning
1/2 cup of water (or 3/4 cup of buffalo sauce if you like it spicy)
8 oz bacon, cooked crisply and crumbled (optional but adds fat)
A bunch of green onion

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a slow cooker, place the chicken breasts on the bottom and then the brick of cream cheese on top of the chicken. Sprinkle the Ranch seasoning packet over the cream cheese and chicken. Add 1/2 cup of water.

  2. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4 hours, until chicken shreds easily.

  3. Once chicken shreds stir with a large fork or spoon, so the chicken shreds and all the ingredients combine.

  4. Add in crumbled bacon and stir to incorporate.

  5. Serve warm and top with green onion!

  6. For Instant Pot: place all 4 ingredients in your Instant Pot and set the pressure cook time to 15 minutes. Do a quick release.
