Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered

1 packet ranch seasoning mix

1 cup chicken broth

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

1 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional)

Salt and black pepper to taste

Fresh parsley or chives, chopped for garnish

Instructions

Prep the Ingredients: Wash and halve the baby potatoes. Pat the chicken breasts dry and season with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

Layer in Crockpot: Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of the crockpot, followed by the baby potatoes. Sprinkle the ranch seasoning mix evenly over the top.

Mix and Pour: Whisk together chicken broth and softened cream cheese in a bowl until smooth. Pour this mixture over the chicken and potatoes.

Cook: Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked (165°F internal temperature) and the potatoes are tender.

Add Parmesan: Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top during the last 15 minutes of cooking for a rich, cheesy finish.

Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley or chives and serve hot. Spoon the creamy sauce over each serving for extra flavor.
