I cooked my chicken first in a slow cooker on high for 3.5 hrs with a little chicken broth and salt/pepper.Remove chicken from the slow cooker and shred.Preheat oven to 350 degrees.In an oven-safe skillet melt 2 tablespoons butter.Next, add ranch seasoning, cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, chicken broth, 1/4 cup crumbled bacon, and 1/2 cup cheese.Use a whisk to combine ingredients and cook on low for 5 minutes.If using a steam bag of broccoli follow directions on the bag to steam.

Otherwise, steam fresh broccoli in microwave until it reaches desired tenderness while the ranch mixture is simmering.Add shredded chicken and cooked broccoli to ranch mixture and stir to combine.Sprinkle 2 cups cheese and 1/2 cup crumbled bacon on top.Cook in oven for 25 minutes then move to top rack.Cook on broil 2-3 minutes until cheese is bubbly and bacon is browned.
