Chicken Crack is a very tasty recipe and can be used in a lot of different dishes. For example it can be used to make sandwiches, put over noodles or add tater tots over the top in a casserole dish and have a great tater tot casserole. I’m sure there are many other ways to serve it up too!
I was going to make biscuit dough and use that as my crust but remembered that I had some crescent roll dough that needed to be used. This ended up being very good! but, I think I will try using biscuit dough next time. Mostly because I prefer biscuits over croissants
I have included the dry ranch mix recipe in this post, since I used it to make the chicken crack.
