Method
 

Crock Pot Instructions
  1. If desired, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  2. In a slow cooker, combine cream of chicken soup, dry ranch seasoning mix, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Add the chicken into the slow cooker, ensuring it is submerged in the sauce. Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours.
  4. Once cooked, shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker, mixing gently to combine with the sauce.
  5. Stir in the sour cream and heat through for an additional 5 minutes.
  6. Serve over rice, mashed potatoes, or egg noodles. Garnish with cheddar cheese and parsley if desired.
