Mississippi Chicken cooks tender and flavor packed in a crock pot with a packet of ranch dressing mix, a packet of dried au jus gravy mix, and pepperoncini peppers. Enjoy this tasty shredded chicken over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles. I love to serve this dish with warm yeast rolls, green beans, and a simple garden salad.
