Follow the cooking flow and check each component at the stated endpoint. The listed pan and basket capacity, cook times, and thermometer endpoint are for four servings. Ingredients are scaled; keep food thickness, spacing, settings and safe endpoints fixed. Timings assume the four-serving batch and specified shortcuts. More food can require additional batches. ## Cooking flow (Tabular Recipe Notation)

Use the publisher slow-cooker variation, not the insufficient-liquid pressure method.
Reserve cheddar, scallion and bacon for the finish; crisp bacon separately in a skillet.
Check poultry or reheated cooked chicken reaches 165°F at the thickest center.

## Ingredients - 1 count bacon. (chopped) - 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts - 8 oz cream cheese - ¼ cup water - 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar - ½ tbsp dried chives - ¾ tsp garlic powder - ¾ tsp onion powder - ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes - ½ tsp dried dill - ⅛ tsp salt - ⅛ tsp black pepper - ¼ cup shredded cheddar. ((2 oz)) - ½ count scallion — thinly sliced). (green and white parts ## Equipment - Slow cooker sized for the original or scaled chicken batch - Stovetop and skillet for bacon - Two forks - Instant-read thermometer ## Cook Prepare cold sides first. Keep raw-poultry tools separate; use clean serving utensils. Probe more than one thick piece. A timer is not a doneness test. 1. **Load the slow cooker.** Use fully thawed chicken. Put it with cream cheese in the slow cooker. Whisk water, vinegar, chives, garlic powder, onion powder, chili flakes, dill, salt and pepper; pour over the chicken. 2. **Cook and shred.** Cover and cook on LOW for about 8 hours, following the cooker manual and confirming chicken reaches 165°F. Shred the cooked chicken with two forks and return it to the sauce; stir in cheddar. 3. **Finish.** Cook bacon in a stovetop skillet until crisp, drain and crumble. Scatter it and sliced scallion over the chicken. Allow preparation and finishing time in addition to the 8-hour slow cook. ## Attention timeline Stages can overlap; endpoints and appliance behavior override the estimate. ## Flavor and capacity - A 15-minute finishing allowance is a planning estimate; cooker behavior and chicken thickness decide the endpoint. ## Nutrition per serving Calories: 380 kcal; protein: 30.0 g; total carbs: 4.0 g; fiber: 1.0 g; net carbs: 3.0 g Publisher estimate per original portion; proportional ingredient scaling preserves that portion. Known allergens for these plates: milk. Check product labels and cross-contact. ## First-cook checks and limits - Uses Faith Gorsky’s published slow-cooker variation, under How to Make Crack Chicken in a Slow Cooker or Crock Pot at the original recipe link. Ingredient quantities are half the original eight-serving batch, giving four portions. - The publisher’s Instant Pot version uses ½ cup water for eight portions, or ¼ cup for four. This adaptation follows the publisher’s slow-cooker method; those small liquid amounts must not be assumed safe for pressure cooking. - Start with fully thawed chicken, follow your exact slow-cooker capacity and operating instructions, and verify 165°F. LOW cooking is approximately 8 hours; allow additional preparation and bacon-finishing time. - Nutrition retains the publisher’s estimate per original portion; proportional scaling preserves that portion. The publisher does not provide separate laboratory validation of the slow-cooker variation. - Ingredient quantities are scaled from 8 original portions to four portions. Fractions of whole items may need weighing or dividing after preparation. Larger batches need extra cooking space or batches; keep thickness and endpoint checks. - Adapted from theketoqueens.com. This adaptation has not been kitchen-tested. - Safe doneness checks are added to the publisher method; timers alone do not establish doneness. ## Leftovers Refrigerate in shallow containers within two hours, or one hour above 90°F. Use within 3–4 days or freeze; reheat to 165°F. Keep cold greens and yogurt separate. ## Sources - [theketoqueens.com: Keto Instant Pot Crack Chicken Recipe](https://theketoqueens.com/keto-crack-chicken-recipe/) - [FoodSafety.gov: safe minimum internal temperatures](https://www.foodsafety.gov/food-safety-charts/safe-minimum-internal-temperatures) These recipes include household adaptations and recipes adapted from the linked publishers.
