Keto Crack Chicken is a creamy, cheesy, and savory slow-cooked chicken dish that combines tender chicken breasts with cream cheese, ranch seasoning, cheddar cheese, and crispy bacon. Perfect for a low-carb ketogenic diet, this recipe is easy to prepare and melts in your mouth with every bite.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning mix (about 1 oz)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prep the chicken: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts at the bottom of the crockpot in a single layer. Sprinkle the ranch seasoning mix evenly over the chicken to ensure it is well coated with flavor.
  2. Add cream cheese and broth: On top of the seasoned chicken, add the softened cream cheese in dollops and pour the chicken broth over everything. This will create a rich, creamy sauce as it cooks.
  3. Cook the chicken: Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours, or on high for 3 to 4 hours until the chicken is fully cooked and tender, easily shredding with a fork.
  4. Shred and mix: Once cooked, shred the chicken directly in the crockpot using two forks. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled cooked bacon until the cheese melts and the mixture is well combined.
  5. Serve and garnish: Spoon the hot keto crack chicken onto plates or into bowls and garnish generously with chopped green onions for a fresh, colorful finish. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, use homemade ranch seasoning or a low-sodium packet to control salt levels.
  • Cook bacon ahead of time and crumble it just before mixing to keep it crispy.
  • Feel free to swap chicken breasts for boneless, skinless thighs for richer texture.
  • If you prefer thicker sauce, remove the lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow some liquid to evaporate.
  • Leftovers keep well in the fridge for up to 3 days and can be reheated gently on the stovetop or microwave.
