## Ingredients - 1 lb chicken breast - ⅔ tbsp butter - 2.7 oz cream cheese - 0.7 oz Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning mix — dry mix; source uses one 1-ounce package - 5 ⅓ count jarred pepperoncini peppers. Source gives a range; amount is its lower endpoint, amountMax its upper endpoint. Source range: 8–10 count; use the lower stated amount as the scaled starting point. ## Equipment - Slow cooker - Forks ## 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. **Slow cook.** Load the chicken, butter, cream cheese, ranch mix and pepperoncini into the cooker. Cook on low for 8 hours. 2. **Shred.** Shred the chicken and peppers and stir them into the creamy cooking liquid before serving. ## Attention timeline Stages can overlap; endpoints and appliance behavior override the estimate. ## Flavor and capacity ## Nutrition per serving Calories: 203 kcal; protein: 26.4 g; total carbs: 1.0 g; fiber: Not provided; net carbs: Not provided Source nutrition is reported only where its per-portion basis is supported. Unavailable totals are not estimated. Known allergens for these plates: milk. Check product labels and cross-contact. ## First-cook checks and limits - Ingredient quantities are scaled from 6 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 Annie. This adaptation has not been kitchen-tested. - The source does not provide verified values for every per-portion macronutrient. Missing values stay unreported; a keto label from the publisher is not a verified net-carb total. - 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 - [Annie: Keto Slow Cooker Zesty Ranch Chicken](https://thebestketorecipes.com/keto-slow-cooker-zesty-ranch-chicken-less-than-1-net-carb/) - [FoodSafety.gov: safe minimum internal temperatures](https://www.foodsafety.gov/food-safety-charts/safe-minimum-internal-temperatures) - [Resolved publisher source](https://thebestketorecipes.com/keto-slow-cooker-zesty-ranch-chicken/) These recipes include household adaptations and recipes adapted from the linked publishers.
