2-Then, cook on high for 3 to 4 hours, or until the chicken hits 165ยฐF internally, ensuring itโ€™s tender and juicy.

3-Once thatโ€™s done, remove the chicken, shred or chop it, and pop it back into the pot. While thatโ€™s happening, cook your pasta according to the package until itโ€™s al dente donโ€™t overdo it, as itโ€™ll soak up more flavors later! Next, stir in the Alfredo sauce, ranch dressing, grated Parmesan cheese, and shredded mozzarella cheese to create that creamy, cheesy magic.
