Pro Tips:
Sear the Chicken: For extra flavor, sear the chicken breasts in a skillet before adding them to the crockpot. This step adds a nice depth of flavor, but it’s optional.
Adjust Spice Levels: If you prefer a milder or spicier dish, adjust the amount of ranch and taco seasoning to suit your taste.
Use Frozen Chicken: You can use frozen chicken breasts; just increase the cooking time by 1-2 hours.
Make Ahead: Prepare the chicken mixture a day in advance and store it in the fridge. In the morning, just pop it into the crockpot for a hassle-free dinner.
