Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 16 ounces cream cheese (two 8-ounce packages)
  • 1 packet ranch dressing seasoning mix (1 ounce)
  • 1 pound bacon, cooked and chopped
  • 4 cups unsalted chicken stock
  • 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Add Ingredients to the Slow Cooker: Place the chicken breasts, cream cheese, ranch dressing seasoning mix, cooked and chopped bacon, and unsalted chicken stock into a 6-quart slow cooker. Distribute the ingredients evenly to ensure they cook uniformly.
  2. Cook on Low Heat: Cover the slow cooker and cook on the LOW setting for 6 to 8 hours. This slow cooking process allows the chicken to become tender and the flavors to meld beautifully.
  3. Shred the Chicken: Carefully remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker. Use two forks to shred the chicken into your desired texture. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and stir it into the creamy broth.
  4. Add Cheddar Cheese and Finish: Stir the shredded cheddar cheese into the slow cooker. Continue cooking until the cheese is fully melted and blended into the soup, creating a rich, creamy consistency.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Once the cheese has melted, the soup is ready to be served. Ladle into bowls and enjoy this hearty keto-friendly meal.

Notes

  • You can adjust the bacon quantity according to your preference or dietary needs.
  • For a smoother soup, you can blend part of the soup after shredding the chicken.
  • Use full-fat cream cheese for the best creamy texture and to keep the dish keto-friendly.
  • Ensure the chicken stock is unsalted to control the sodium content.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently to avoid curdling the cheese.
