  • 2 pounds chicken breasts

Seasonings and Sauces

  • 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Place the 2 pounds of chicken breasts in the crockpot, arranging them evenly at the bottom.
  2. Add seasonings and sauce: Pour the packet of ranch seasoning mix, 1 cup buffalo sauce, 1/2 cup chicken broth, and 1 tablespoon garlic powder over the chicken breasts to coat them thoroughly.
