Mississippi Chicken Slow Cooker (Print Version)

Savory chicken cooked with au jus, ranch seasoning, butter, and peperoncini peppers in a slow cooker.

# Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Protein

01 - 3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

→ Seasonings

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

→ Fats

04 - ½ cup (1 stick) salted butter

→ Vegetables

05 - 6 peperoncini peppers

# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - Place 3 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts at the base of the slow cooker.
02 - Sprinkle both the au jus gravy mix and ranch dressing mix evenly over the chicken. Top with ½ cup (1 stick) of salted butter and arrange 6 peperoncini peppers on top.
03 - Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours without lifting the lid. The chicken will release its own juices, so no additional liquid is necessary.
04 - Once tender, shred the chicken using two forks and serve immediately with your choice of sides.

# Extra Tips & Details:

01 - Frozen or fresh chicken may be used; frozen is suitable for longer cooking times. Using chicken thighs is an option but consider reducing butter quantity by half due to higher fat content.
