  • Secure crockpot lid and cook on high for 4 hours, or low for 6-8 hours. Test the chicken doneness by shredding it with 2 forks, it should fall apart easily - if not place lid on top and continue to cook, checking every 15 minutes, until it does.
  • Shred the cooked chicken. Add bacon (8 ounces) and green onions (1/4 cup) to the crockpot. Toss everything together until well combined. Enjoy!

Notes

  1. Instant Pot Crack Chicken - Add 1/2 cup of chicken broth, chicken, cream cheese, and ranch dressing packets to your IP. Seal the lid and make sure the pressure release valve is set to "sealing". Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes. Switch the valve to "venting", and once the pin drops, remove the lid. Shred the chicken, add the other ingredients, and toss to combine!
