Crockpot Ranch Chicken Tacos + Video
Chicken plus 3 ingredients gets you Crockpot Chicken Ranch Tacos in 5 to 6 hours of slow cooking time. Flavorful for salads and burritos as well. It’s dinner made easy!
I love a good crockpot dinner, especially as the weather is heating up outside and summer is on it’s way. This Crockpot Chicken Ranch Tacos recipe is one of those dinners that everyone loves and it couldn’t be simpler to make.
There is a dry ranch dressing mix packet cooked in with the chicken so you get that ranch flavor, in addition to using ranch dressing on top, if desired. But the chicken is pretty flavorful by itself. If your kids love ranch, they will love this dinner!

This chicken also uses my favorite homemade taco seasoning, which if you haven’t gone homemade yet, you need to ASAP! All the flavor, but cheaper and no MSG!
The 3rd ingredient in this recipe, is chicken broth. I keep Better than Bouillon Roasted Chicken Base in my fridge at all times to make broth whenever I need it. You just add hot water and it’s super flavorful.
This chicken would be great for taco salads and chicken burritos as well. It is seriously flavorful and delicious, with little fuss. Turn it on in the morning and come home to dinner tonight!

We made this last week, it was delicious! My husband is always looking for ways to make food spicy, so we added some buffalo wing sauce to the tacos, and it was amazing! Sounds crazy but it was delicious!
That’s doesn’t sound crazy, my husband would love if I added buffalo wing sauce! Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
Just put it in the crockpot. Word around the neighborhood is that this one is a keeper.

Had to stop by to pin these tacos!! LOVE this idea!
What kids (and adults) don’t like ranch!? I’m trying to use my slow cooker more, especially on Sundays. It’s so nice to have a meal ready when you get home from work or church.
And agreed—Shirley J Chicken Bouillon is awesome!

My kids like chicken more than beef, so this was a great variation for us to use for tacos.
