What to serve with Creamy ranch chicken?

- Caesar Salad – This is so simple and a delicious side dish.
- Steamed Broccoli. Only 3 minutes and you can have a great side dish. It is tasty and perfect for busy weeknights.

- Garlic Bread Cheese Sticks -Garlic bread stuffed with cheese is the perfect bread to serve with this chicken. It is perfect for dipping and so delicious.
Variation ideas
- Try mixing it up with the vegetables. Green beans are yummy with the chicken. This would also be a great way to make this a one pot meal.
- Use chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts. You can even mix both together.
- Try using red potatoes. These are delicious in this one pot meal.
- Add a second can of cream of chicken soup. You can add an extra can if you like even more sauce.
- Add chicken broth. The consistency can be thinned by adding chicken broth.
- Use cauliflower instead of potatoes. If you are trying to reduce carbs, use cauliflower as a substitution for the potatoes. The rich gravy makes even cauliflower tasty.
- Omit the potatoes. Skip the potatoes in the crock pot and serve this recipe over mashed potatoes, egg noodles or rice.
- Cream Soup. More ideas include: cream of mushroom and cream of celery. Another idea is to mix two different types of soup in this recipe.
How to store
Put leftovers inside an airtight container. Place in the fridge up to 5 days.
How to reheat
You can reheat individual servings in the microwave for 60 seconds or until heated through. If the sauce separates, just whisk it until creamy.
This is great for lunch later in the week. We all fight over who gets the leftovers. It really is that delicious.
Make this a freezer meal.
You can make this ahead of time so all you have to do is toss and go in the crock pot.
Put the chicken in a freezer bag. Then mix together the sauce and pour in the bag over the chicken.
Freeze until ready to cook. Do not add the potatoes and carrots until you are ready to put in the slow cooker.
Cook as normal and enjoy. This is a great way to cut down on a portion of the prep time.
I like to cook one batch and freeze another. It really is not any more work since you have all of the ingredients out. Plus, you will have another easy meal for later.

Super excited! Just got it all in the crock pot ?? I had made 3 extra cups of shredded chicken last night so I used that instead. Added a tad of chicken broth to the mixture just in case. Since my chicken is already cooked. And doubled the “sauce” part, since I added an extra potato and a tad extra carrots. THANK YOU for the recipe ??
