  2. Add Sauce and Seasoning: Pour the buffalo sauce over the chicken breasts evenly, then sprinkle the ranch seasoning mix on top.
  3. Cook the Chicken: Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, until the chicken is tender and easily shredded.
  4. Shred the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks, then return the shredded chicken to the sauce in the slow cooker and stir well to coat.

  • Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce based on your preferred spice level.
  • For a creamier texture, consider adding a splash of ranch dressing after shredding the chicken.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
  • Serve with celery sticks or blue cheese for a classic buffalo chicken experience.
