Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 16 ounces cream cheese (two 8-ounce packages)
  • 1 packet ranch dressing seasoning mix (1-ounce)
  • 1 pound bacon, cooked and chopped
  • 4 cups chicken stock, unsalted
  • 1½ cups cheddar cheese, shredded

Instructions

  1. Add Ingredients to the Slow Cooker: Begin by placing the chicken breasts, cream cheese, ranch dressing seasoning mix, cooked and chopped bacon, and unsalted chicken stock into a 6-quart slow cooker. Ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed to promote even cooking and flavor melding.
  2. Cook on Low Heat: Cover the slow cooker and set to cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours. This slow cooking process tenderizes the chicken and deeply infuses the soup with savory flavors.
  3. Shred the Chicken: After cooking, carefully remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker. Using two forks, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces or according to your preferred texture. Return the shredded chicken back into the slow cooker and stir well to combine with the creamy broth.
  4. Add Cheddar Cheese and Finish: Stir the shredded cheddar cheese into the soup in the slow cooker. Continue stirring until the cheese is fully melted and integrated, creating a rich and creamy finish to your keto chicken cream cheese soup.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can reserve some cooked bacon as a garnish.
  • Ensure you use unsalted chicken stock to balance the saltiness from bacon and ranch seasoning mix.
  • If your cream cheese is firm, consider cutting it into cubes for easier melting.
  • Adjust the ranch seasoning amount to taste or use a homemade blend if preferred.
  • This soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and freezes well for up to 3 months.
