Today, I needed a super quick lunch, so I pulled out my trusty crockpot and made Cheesy Chicken Ranch Potatoes. If Ranch in any form is listed in the ingredients, you know I’m sold! It was so nice to come home to an all in one meal like this and, oh my goodness, my kitchen smelled amazing. I’ll definitely make this again, and I think a Cajun version would be pretty tasty, too. Next time!! I bet it’s one of those meals that’s even better the next day, but there were no leftovers, so I may never know! 🙂 I hope your Wednesday has been wonderful!
Cheesy Chicken Ranch Potatoes
Ingredients:
5 pounds red potatoes, chopped
3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
3 cups rotisserie chicken (or pre-cooked frozen chicken)
2 ranch dressing packets
(I added one stick of butter, sliced)
Instructions:
Line a large crockpot with foil and spray with cooking spray.
Place a layer of potatoes to cover the bottom and top with slices of butter. Top with chicken, then sprinkle ranch seasoning powder and cheese over top. Repeat 2-3 more times with remaining ingredients until crockpot is full. Close the foil over the mixture to keep the steam in.
Cover crockpot with lid and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 7-8 hours.

Note: For the chicken, I used frozen rotisserie seasoned chicken. Also, I sliced think chunks of red potatoes, because I love them. 🙂 To allow enough time for the potatoes to become tender, I cooked on high for 5 hours. Enjoy!
