What you will need:
- 2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken
- 1/2 bottle of Zesty Italian dressing
- 1/2 T minced garlic
- 3 T ranch dressing mix (recipe asks to mix this with 1/2 C water, I did not. See below.)
- 1/2 T chili powder
- 1/2 T ground cumin
Directions:
- In a bowl, mix together the dressing, garlic, ranch mix, chili powder and ground cumin
- Pour mixture over the breasts making sure to coat each breast entirely
- Place all ingredients in the crock pot on high for 5-6 hours or on low for 8 hours
- OR, if you are pressed for time...
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees
- Place chicken breasts in a cake pan
- Poke a few holes in each breast with a toothpick or fork
- In a bowl, mix together the dressing, garlic, ranch mix, chili powder and ground cumin
- Pour mixture over the breasts making sure to coat each breast entirely
- Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in the fridge until you are ready to cook them (or until your oven is preheated)
- Cook at 375 degrees for 45 mins-1 hour
- When the chicken is done (in the crock pot or the oven), roughly cut chicken into cube chunks and toss them in a KitchenAid to shred.
