Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray and set aside.
- Combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, and ranch seasoning mix in a large shallow bowl. In a second bowl, pour the melted butter.
- Dip the chicken breasts in melted butter, then roll each chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture until evenly coated.
- Place the coated chicken in the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked, the juices run clear, and the internal temperature is at least 165°F.
Notes
- Storage: Store Parmesan ranch chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- You can use regular Italian breadcrumbs instead of Panko, or try keto breadcrumbs to make this dish keto-friendly.
- Feel free to swap the Parmesan for another hard cheese, such as Asiago, Pecorino Romano, or Grana Padano.
- In place of the ranch seasoning, feel free to use your favorite seasoning packet, such as Italian seasoning, chicken seasoning, or creole seasoning!
- In place of the chicken breasts, you can use an equal amount of boneless, skinless chicken thighs.
- Make sure to pat the chicken dry before dredging it in the butter and breadcrumbs to help everything adhere!
- Slice the chicken in half lengthwise to create chicken cutlets. This will cut down on the cooking time and allow the meat to cook more evenly.
- To make in advance, coat the chicken and place it in an air-tight container in the fridge overnight before baking.
- Broil your chicken for a minute or two at the end of cooking to get an even crispier crust. Just be sure you keep a close eye on it — you don't want it to burn.
