Cool Ranch Crockpot Chicken Tacos or Tostadas
 The intention was to have these posted for you in time for Cinco de Mayo, but life got crazy busy. Oh well, a couple days late, but they are worth the wait!
This recipe really should be called Cool Ranch Crockpot Chicken Tostadas, Tacos, Burritos, Nachos, etc … You can add this yummy shredded chicken to just about anything. I am excited to throw some of the leftovers on my salad tonight.
The combo of ranch & taco spices really reminded me of Cool Ranch Doritos…. hence the name. I must say, this is one of my easiest crockpot recipes. Four ingredients, in the crockpot, and push go! I hope you love this flavorful crockpot recipe.How do you plan on using  your Cool Ranch Crockpot Chicken?

First off this looks delicious!
So my question is, is this powdered ranch or liquid?
It looks like liquid but I just want to make sure before I go throwing ranch all over the kitchen!
Also, could I just use ranch out of the bottle? If so about how much would I use?
Thank you! I can’t wait to try this!
Amber, thanks for stopping by! You use POWDERED ranch. I have never tried it with ranch straight outta the bottle. I hope you love this recipe as much as my we do! XO
Do you use frozen or thawed breasts?
I use thawed 🙂
This was great and so easy. I doubled it and used the leftovers to make chicken tortilla soup! Thanks!!
That is great Beth! Ohhhhh, Chicken Tortilla Soup sounds great! Once of my favs 🙂 XO
Hi,
I don’t have the ranch powder. Can I make it with just the broth and the taco seasoning?
You sure can Jenny! It will taste great without the ranch 🙂 Hope you enjoy! XO
Hi there,
I’m making this tonight for my 4 kids so we can have a quick but healthy meal before basketball practice. I have a question. Your ingredient list and the directions say chicken broth but the pictures show you putting in chicken stock. Does it make a difference which I use? I bought both to be prepared. 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
Bridget, sorry for the confusion. Either stock or broth will work for this recipe. I tend to use them both in the same way. I know there can be slight taste differences between the to, but when crockpot cooking, I really don’t think anyone would be able to tell the difference. Hope that helps!
