Crack Chicken is an amazing recipe. As the name implies it is so good you will not stop eating it. The reviews are in, and this is everyone’s favorite chicken recipe! This recipe is just as amazing as my Crack Chicken Casserole! I’ve even made it into Crack Chicken Dip!

This recipe is great, and the best part is you throw everything in the slow cooker at the beginning of the day. Come dinner time you are ready to enjoy the most amazing dish!

How to make Slow Cooker Crack Chicken:

This recipe is really super easy to make. As I said above, you basically throw everything into the slow cooker except the bacon, shredded cheddar and green onions. Cook for close to 6 or 7 hours, and then add the bacon and cheese. Allow the cheese to melt for about 10 minutes and then you are ready to serve. Top with the green onions and enjoy!

Ingredient Notes:

  • Chicken Breasts (skinless and boneless)
  • Chicken Broth
  • Ranch Seasoning
  • Cream Cheese (cubed)
  • Bacon Crumbles – Use my Air Fryer Bacon recipe for fast cooked bacon to crumble.
  • Cheddar Cheese (shredded)
  • Green Onions (sliced)

Directions:

Step One – Place chicken breast and chicken broth into your slow cooker.

Step Two – Sprinkle your ranch seasoning onto your chicken breast. Then place cubed cream cheese on top.

Step Three – Cover and cook for 6-7 hours on low or 4-5 hours on high or until chicken is cooked through.

Step Four – Once the chicken is cooked shred chicken with two forks in the slow cooker. Add in 1 cup of cooked and crumbled bacon and mix everything together well.

Step Five – Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of the chicken mixture. Place the lid back onto the slow cooker and allow to cook on warm until the cheese is melted. This could take 8- 10 minutes.

Step Six – Once the cheese is melted remove the lid and top with the remaining ⅓ cup of cooked and crumbled bacon and sliced green onions to serve.

I love serving this recipe over a bed of white rice. Rice goes really well with this recipe, and it mixes great. Another great way to serve this recipe is on buns. Get some hamburger buns or some Kaiser rolls and make sandwiches.
