Start by adding 1 can of cream of chicken soup to a bowl.

Loosen the cream of chicken soup with some chicken broth, whisking until combined.

Take a couple of boneless, skinless chicken breasts and sprinkle ranch seasoning over the top.

Flip the chicken breasts and cover the other side with ranch seasoning as well.

Transfer the seasoned chicken breasts to the slow cooker.

Cover the slow cooker with a lid.

Use a slow cooker liner for easy cleanup.

Set the slow cooker to low for 4 to 6 hours or high for 2 to 3 hours.

Once cooked, remove the chicken from the sauce using bear paws or forks to shred it.

Transfer the shredded chicken back into the slow cooker and mix it with the gravy.

Serve the chicken and gravy over egg noodles, mashed potatoes, rice, or biscuits.
