Follow these simple steps to create your delicious Crack Chicken Penne:

1. Cook Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the penne pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. Prepare Chicken: While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil.

3. Cook Chicken: Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside to cool slightly.

4. Shred Chicken: Once slightly cooled, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces using two forks.

5. Make Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce heat to low. Add the cream cheese and ranch seasoning mix, stirring until well combined and creamy.

6. Add Broth and Milk: Gradually pour in the chicken broth and milk, stirring continuously until the sauce is smooth and heated through.

7. Combine Ingredients: Add the shredded chicken and cooked penne pasta to the sauce, tossing everything together until well coated.

8. Add Cheese: Mix in the shredded cheddar cheese until fully melted and incorporated into the dish.

9. Taste Test: Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

10. Serve: Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with chopped green onions if desired.
