TANGY RANCH CHICKEN

I used boneless chicken breast, but you can also use bone-in.
This recipe is a great prep-ahead recipe. Put it together early in the day, then bake just before dinner time.
For an even healthier dinner, substitute coconut sugar for the brown sugar.
You can eat it as I often do, or serve it over rice, quinoa, pasta, or zucchini noodles.

Glass casserole full of cheese and protein.

CAN I MAKE TANGY RANCH CHICKEN IN A SLOW COOKER?

Yes! To cook in a slow cooker add the chicken breast to the slow cooker. Next mix the ranch, mustard, and brown sugar together. Reserve 1/2 cup of the sauce and pour the rest of it over the chicken. Cook on low for 4 hours. Serve alone with the reserved sauce.

HOW DO I STORE LEFTOVERS?

Store any leftovers in airtight containers in the refrigerator. This is a great recipe for meal prep and leftovers reheat nicely. You can store the leftover chicken in the fridge for up to three days. At that time, you will need to toss out any leftovers.

Where has this recipe been hiding my whole life? Could not be any easier. My chicken tenders were moist and interesting. I paired it with a cabbage fried rice. Pantry staples, as well.
