There is nothing I love more than a dinner that is complete with chicken, veggies and potatoes. If I can add butter and ranch to that meal then I’m in heaven! Slow Cooker Ranch Chicken is a perfect meal for a busy night. The prep only takes a few minutes and you will have dinner off your to-do list. My favorite part is everyone, kids included, will gobble it up and ask for seconds.

Another all in one dinner is my Garlic Butter Chicken and Veggies which is always on rotation in our monthly meal planning.

TIPS FOR MAKING SLOW COOKER RANCH CHICKEN

I always feel good when I can put a homemade dinner on the table. The best part about this meal is you can customize it to exactly what your family likes. I used chicken thighs in this recipe but you can swap for chicken breasts. If your family doesn’t like green beans use any hearty vegetable like carrots.

If you prefer to make your ranch from scratch here is an easy recipe that only takes minutes to make. That way you can control the ingredients and salt.

Leave the lid on while the meal is cooking. The potatoes need to be cooked

Gluten Free Chicken Dinner

All my recipes are gluten free because my husband has celiac, which means you are allergic to gluten. This dinner is completely gluten free so it is a great option for any one who is gluten free!

HOW TO MAKE SLOW COOKER RANCH CHICKEN

STEP 1. Mix melted butter, ranch packet and garlic together in a small bowl and mix together.

STEP 2. Add chicken thighs (or breasts) to Slow Cooker.

STEP 3. Pour half the butter mixture on top of chicken.

STEP 4. Add potatoes and green beans on top of chicken.

STEP 5. Pour remaining butter on top of vegetables.

STEP 6. Add 1/4 cup of chicken stock over all the ingredients.

STEP 7. Cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6 hours. Cook for less time if using breasts.

    I’m trying this tonight. Looks good, I hope it turns out good. & I’m glad I read above the recipe & directions, as one of the last steps states to add 1/4 cup chicken stock but it’s not listed in the ingredient list or the directions below ingredient list 🙂

    So delicious and easy to make. I used asparagus instead of green beans and it was perfect

    Recipe looks yummy, cant wait to try it. What is the cooking time if using chicken breasts?

      Hi CJ! I usually cook my chicken breast for 2 to 2 1/2 hours on low. Every crock pot cooks differently but I think checking at 2 hours always works best for chicken breasts to make sure they aren’t cover cooked.

    Very disappointed- this was very bland and watery. The only positive was that the beans were crispy and the potatoes were soft. Only used 2 pieces of chicken in this but both were completely bland. The buttery- ranch flavoring did not stick to anything. I religiously bring left overs for lunch the next day- sad to say Im trashing this and will take my chances in the cafeteria.

      Hi Julie- I’m so sorry to hear that was your experience with this recipe. I’m not sure what caused the lack of flavor but wish I knew how to fix it.
