Ingredients (7)

For safe meat preparation, reference the USDA website.

Steps (4)

  1. 1

    Pour the chicken broth into a pressure cooker. Add chicken and cream cheese, and sprinkle with ranch seasoning mix.

  2. 2

    Select the manual or pressure cook function and set for 15 minutes. When finished cooking, use the quick-release valve to release additional pressure.

  3. 3

    Remove chicken from the pot and shred; set aside. Reset the pressure cooker to the sauté function.

  4. 4

    Whisk the remaining ingredients in the pot to smooth out any remaining cream cheese pieces. Add the chicken back into the pot with cheddar cheese. Garnish with bacon and scallions, if using, and serve hot.

    1. 1
      Place all ingredients except cheddar cheese, bacon and scallions inside the inner pot of your multi-cooker and close the lid, leaving it on venting, not sealing. Press the slow cook button.
    2. 2
      Press the “adjust” button and change the heat setting to “normal.” Set the timer for 6–8 hours. Alternatively, change the heat setting to “more” and cook for 4–6 hours.
    3. 3
      Remove the lid and shred the chicken with a fork. Stir in the cheddar cheese and mix well until the cheese has melted.
    4. 4
      Garnish with bacon and scallions to taste.

    * Always follow manufacturer’s instructions.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Is it Possible to Marry This Dish? Just getting into Keto and decided to try this recipe. Very easy to make, next time, though I'll used chicken that has already been shredded and maybe try to find bacon that has already been cooked and crumbled. I know I can get the scallions already cut up. I have a whole pot of this to myself! Oh my GOD I am in love with this dish!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Easy and Yummy Very easy to make in the pressure cooker. I added more scallions and some Frank's Hot Sauce. It was a tad too salty so next time I may use slightly less seasoning and leave out the bacon. Taking it to work and the guys will love it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quick and easy I made this for dinner last night. It was really good and my son-in-law loved it. I will however be making a couple changes next time. I will increase the amount of bacon to 8 slices, add 1/2 cup more shredded cheddar and 1 additional scallion. This recipe is a keeper and will make it into out weekly rotation
