Slow Cooker Mississippi Chicken

One of my favorite things about using my slow cooker for dinners is when I have a recipe that is truly a “set it an forget it” style. This Mississippi Chicken is SO easy to throw in your slow cooker, cover, and walk away until dinnertime!

Your family will love the bold flavors of this dish. The chicken turns out so tangy and juicy and is great for serving on sandwich rolls or over rice. Plus, it makes for awesome leftovers so it's a great option for meal prepping for easy grab-and-go meals during the week.

MENU TIP: This Mississippi chicken recipe is from week 6 of our slow cooker volume 1 menu planning made easy set! 

What is Mississippi Chicken?

Mississippi Chicken is a tasty spin on traditional Mississippi Pot Roast. Instead of beef and an au jus, this yields shredded chicken topped with pepperoncini peppers.

Ingredients You'll Need:

• Chicken breasts
• Ranch dressing mix
• Brown gravy mix
• Butter
• Pepperoncini peppers
• Hoagie buns or rice for serving

How to make Crock Pot Mississippi Chicken:

Grab your slow cooker and place the chicken inside. Sprinkle one package of ranch dressing mix and half a package of brown gravy mix evenly over top of the chicken.

Cut butter into small pieces and place on top of the chicken. Add your desired amount of pepperoncini peppers (these add a little bit of spice so tailor it to what your family likes!).

Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours. When chicken is done, remove peppers, and shred chicken. Serve this tasty dish on buns or over rice!
