Step-by-Step Instructions for Crockpot Mississippi Chicken
  1. Begin by placing 2 pounds of skinless, boneless chicken breasts in your slow cooker. Spread them evenly across the bottom, ensuring they fit snugly.
  2. Sprinkle the ranch dressing seasoning mix and dry au jus gravy mix evenly over the chicken.
  3. Cut half a cup of unsalted butter into small squares and distribute them on top of the seasoned chicken.
  4. Slice and drain a cup of pepperoncini peppers and scatter them over the chicken. Pour in a quarter cup of the pepper juice.
  5. Cover your slow cooker with the lid and set it to cook on high for about 4 hours or low for 6–8 hours.
  6. Once the cooking time is up, remove the lid and use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the crockpot.
