Everyone can top with their favorite toppings like slaw, blue cheese, pickles, or chips. Check out the easy recipe!

Ingredients

The ingredients for this Creamy Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken are very simple and you likely already have everything you need. 

  • Chicken (I love using chicken thighs but breasts or tenderloins work great)

  • Buffalo Sauce

  • Ranch Powder Seasoning

  • Hiland Dairy Cream Cheese

  • Buns 

  • Toppings: extra buffalo sauce, blue cheese, ranch, chips, slaw, shredded carrots, pickles, etc.

Step By Step Instructions

Step one: Lay the chicken on the bottom of the crockpot and then layer the ranch powder, buffalo sauce and cream cheese on top. Let the crockpot do its thing for 4 hours on high or 6 hours on low. Stir everything together halfway through cooking. 

Step two: Once chicken is cooked, use 2 forks to shred the chicken. Stir the shredded chicken up in the sauce then serve! Top on a bun and add your favorite toppings.
