If you’ve never tried Crack Chicken before you’re missing out. This is one of the simplest foods you can prep that the whole family will love. What’s not to love about bacon, ranch, and cream cheese? See what I mean! Add this simple recipe to your dinner menu this week and you wont regret it!
This crack chicken is so versatile you can use it to make just about anything. Use crack chicken to make these meals:
- Sandwiches
- Tacos
- Enchiladas
- Taquitos
- Baked Potatoes
- Rice and Veggie bowls
This one can be made in the slow cooker before heading out for the day. Or if you need a quick meal to throw together after a long day of work or errands, throw this in the pressure cooker and it will be done in under and hour. Just remember to add about 1/2 cup of water to your pot if using a pressure cooker! Instructions for both are below.
You can use pre cooked bacon bits for this one in a pinch, but I recommend cooking your own if you can.
As always, I hope you enjoy this recipe when you make it in your own home. Tag me on Instagram if you’re into that! I absolutely love seeing you guys making my recipes and sharing, it means a lot. Thank you! Enjoy this one and have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
