How To Make crockpot chicken dinner

  • 1
    Wash potatoes well. I leave the skin on. Slice onion and potatoes and layer in the bottom of crock pot. I usually put onion first and then the potatoes. Sprinkle half of the ranch dressing mix over this layer.
  • 2
    On top of the potato layer, place your chicken pieces. Adjust amount depending on how many you are expecting for dinner. Sprinkle them with the rest of the dressing mix. Add a generous pat of butter to the top of each breast piece.
  • 3
    Set crockpot on high for 4-5 hours. Check periodically to see if it needs the addition of a bit of moisture. If needed, add the chicken broth or stock.
  • Last Step: Don't forget to share! Make all your friends drool by posting a picture of your finished recipe on your favorite social network. And don't forget to tag Just A Pinch and include #justapinchrecipes so we can see it too!
