- 1 medium onion, diced
- 4 red potatoes, sliced

- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 oz. dry ranch dressing mix equal to 2 tablespoons
- 1 teaspoon Parsley flakes
- 5 slices bacon, cooked/crumbled, to garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Melt the butter on the bottom of the crock pot. Add all of the vegetables on top and stir to coat with the butter.
- Season the cubed chicken with Italian seasoning and desired amounts of salt and pepper.
- Mix together the soup, milk, sour cream and ranch dressing mix. Temper the mixture by heating it for 30 seconds in the microwave. Pour on top of the chicken.

Recipe Notes
- *The extra fat in whole milk will prevent it from curdling, along with tempering it beforehand and cooking it low and slow.
- Slow cookers do vary in terms of heat and cook time, thus the 6-8 hour range. You know your slow cooker best!
