  • 8 oz Cream Cheese
  • 1 Tablespoon Ranch Seasoning
  • ½ cup Chicken Broth
  • ¼ cup Frank's Red Hot Sauce

Instructions

  • Place chicken breasts in the bottom of a crockpot then add the cream cheese, ranch seasoning, chicken broth, hot sauce and salt.
  • Cover and cook on HIGH for about 4 hours, or on LOW for 6-7 hours.
