Main Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken breasts Can be substituted with chicken thighs for richer flavor.
  • 1 cup buffalo sauce Choose your preferred spicy level.
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing Homemade or store-bought.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Gather all your ingredients. Chop any additional veggies you’d like to include.
  • Put the chicken breasts directly into your crockpot, spreading them out evenly.
  • In a separate bowl, combine buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

Cooking

  • Pour the sauce mixture over the chicken breasts in the crockpot, ensuring they are covered evenly.
  • Cover the crockpot with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.
  • After the cooking time, check if the chicken is fully cooked; it should shred easily with a fork.
  • Using two forks, shred the chicken in the crockpot to soak up the remaining sauce.

Serving

  • Serve immediately, pairing it with your favorite sides or toppings.
