Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by placing your boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the bottom of your crockpot. Ensure they are evenly spaced to promote proper cooking.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the ranch dressing mix, brown gravy mix, chicken broth, and cream of chicken soup. Whisk these ingredients together until smooth.
  3. Carefully pour the gravy mixture over the chicken breasts in the crockpot, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
  4. Cover the crockpot with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6 hours.
  5. Once the cooking time is complete, take two forks and gently shred the chicken right in the crockpot.
  6. Stir in sour cream to the shredded chicken and gravy mixture, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
  7. Spoon the hearty chicken and gravy over a bed of fluffy rice, creamy mashed potatoes, or alongside crusty bread, and garnish with chopped parsley.
