- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted (I used 4 tablespoons)
- 1 can cream of chicken soup (10 3/4 ounce)
- 8 ounces of cream cheese, cut into cubes
- 1/2 cup chicken broth (I used low sodium)
- 1 packet (1 ounce) Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix
- paprika – few dashes
- 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic (I used 1/2 teaspoon)
- 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley flakes (I used 1/2 teaspoon)
- 1/8 teaspoon dried oregano (I omitted)
TIPS – BAKING IN THE OVEN
- I doubled the butter, garlic and parsley and omitted the oregano.
- I followed the same instructions, but instead of using my crock pot, I placed the chicken breasts in a 9×13 baking dish, lightly sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
- I sprinkled the breasts with paprika and the ranch dressing packet, then drizzled the melted butter on top. I used a brush to get the butter even over the chicken.
- I baked the chicken uncovered at 350 degrees f. (pre-heated), on the middle rack of the oven for about 45 minutes, then topped the chicken with the creamy sauce and placed it back in the oven uncovered for an additional 20 minutes.
- Baking times will vary depending on the size of the chicken breasts and oven. My chicken breasts were large and took longer to bake.
- I thinly sliced the chicken, serving it over rice with the sauce, with a side of steamed broccoli.
- Don’t let the ugly fool you, it may not be pretty right out of the oven…but it’s great. Be sure to mix the sauce again, in the baking dish, before serving.

Could you make this in a instant pot?
Do you cook the sauce mixture? It looks like there’s a pot on the stove with maybe the sauce with cream of chicken, cream cheese and chicken broth???? That’s not clear.
Natalie – Yes, I followed the Crock Pot recipe but baked it in the oven “Add cream of chicken soup, the 8 oz. of cream cheese cubes, 1/2 cup chicken broth, dried Oregano and dried Parsley flakes. Stir on medium heat until smooth.” Then pour the sauce over the chicken and bake.

I an gluten intolerant and I use the diet very strictly. I live in Az. I have not been able to find GF cream of chicken soup
Campbell’s made a none. I use Pregresso the have a few soups that are GF. I use the cream of mushroom and creamy enchilada. Sometimes that will work as a sub for the cream chicken you call for but Progresso soups are not condensed like the old small cans of Campbell’s or store brands. I heard Amy’s makes a few GF soups so I will have to check. Can you let me know what you use. If it is not GF please let people know…Thanks, Marti
Pacific brand- in a small Tetra Pak box not a can- and it’s organic.
I used Seven Seas Packet of powdered Italian dressing along with the Ranch packet. Saved time and gave it a great flavor!
Mine is cooking on the crockpot right now. Smells amazing

this looks similar to Hungarian Parikash – but I want the "Crock Pot" version of his recipe ??? How does It get layered in the pot.
