If you like the famous chicken salad restaurant chain’s “Sassy Scotty,” this Crockpot Crack Chicken in the Express Crock will be your new favorite dish. It is rich, creamy and bursting with flavor. Keep it warm or chill it for an easy “sassy” meal that you’re family will love!
As we all quarantine, cooking at home has become a necessity. I am cooking lots of my favorite crockpot meals like the best BBQ Chicken, Salsa Chicken and one of Fred’s other favorites A1 Pot Roast that is in the crock now! These are awesome, because they are so easy with minimal ingredients and are absolutely delicious. I’m also experimenting with so many new recipes, because we just can’t eat the same thing over and over.
How to make Crockpot Crack Chicken
These are the ingredients you will need:
- Chicken Breasts
- Dry Envelope Hidden Valley Ranch
- Block of Cream Cheese
- Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
- Bacon
- Chicken Broth (only if you are cooking on pressure cooker mode)
What is “Crack” Chicken?
This recipe is all over the internet, and I’m a little embarrassed that it’s taken me this long to make it. What a huge mistake!!! Fred called me a “mean woman” for not making it until now! I guess it was the name that made me shy away for so long, but the name and reputation precedes itself. We’ve made it three times since we’ve been in quarantine. And, it’s on the menu again next week!We officially have a crack chicken addiction now!
This is Keto friendly and is great alone or on a bed of lettuce. If you feel like some carbs, put some on buttery crackers or load it on a baked potato. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it! Exactly why it’s name is CRACK chicken! You can also leave the chicken out and make it Crack Dip for an appetizer!
Tip: to shred the chicken you can use two forks or my favorite tool these bear paws!
