Method
 

Step‑By‑Step Instructions
  1. Start by placing the boneless, skinless chicken breasts at the bottom of your crockpot. Make sure they lie flat and don’t overlap.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the ranch dressing mix, brown gravy mix, chicken broth, and cream of chicken soup until smooth.
  3. Pour the prepared gravy mixture evenly over the chicken, ensuring each piece is fully coated.
  4. Cover the crockpot with its lid and set it to low heat, allowing it to cook for 6 hours.
  5. Using two forks, carefully shred the chicken right in the crockpot, allowing the meat to absorb the gravy.
  6. Stir in the sour cream to the mixture, enhancing the creaminess and tang. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
  7. Ladle the crockpot chicken and gravy over fluffy rice or creamy mashed potatoes, garnishing with freshly chopped parsley.
