If you're looking for super yummy crockpot chicken recipes, these cheesy shredded chicken sandwiches are all you need! Your entire family is going to love this simple slow cooker meal. The creamy chicken pairs perfectly with crispy bacon, lettuce and hoagie rolls.
- 1.5 lbs boneless chicken breast
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 packet ranch seasoning
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 cup chicken broth or water
- 6+ slices of cooked bacon
- 6 hoagie rolls
- chopped lettuce for topping
- ranch dressing for topping
-
Add the chicken, cream cheese, shredded cheddar, packet of ranch, garlic powder and chicken broth to a greased slow cooker and cook on LOW for 5-7 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours, or until the chicken shreds easily with a fork.
-
Toast the hoagie rolls in a 450 degree oven for a few minutes, and then scoop on the chicken and top with crispy bacon and lettuce; drizzle with ranch dressing.
- A really crunchy lettuce like romaine, iceberg or cabbage pairs best with the creamy chicken. I also recommend making your bacon extra crispy and not mixing it in with the chicken so that it doesn't get soggy. It makes all the difference!
- The chicken itself is really low carb, so if you're watching your carbs, ditch the bread and serve it over a salad or with these crispy cheddar chaffles.
