Ingredients
- 3 chicken breast about 1.50 pounds total, 4 boneless skinless pieces
- ½ cup ranch dressing Hidden Valley® Simply Ranch Chili Lime Ranch brand
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 bell pepper I used red and yellow; other colors may be substituted, sliced into 1/2-inch wide strips
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 to 3 tablespoons cilantro optional for garnishing, fresh
- salt optional and to taste
- black pepper optional and to taste
Instructions
- To a large ziptop bag, add the chicken, Hidden Valley® Simply Ranch Chile Lime Ranch, lime juice, seal bag, and squish contents around to distribute evenly. Place bag in refrigerator to marinate for at least 15 minutes, or overnight.
- When ready to bake, preheat oven to 425F, line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray, and place chicken on baking sheet.
- Add the bell peppers next to the chicken, evenly drizzle with olive oil, and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until peppers are crisp-tender and chicken is cooked through (internal temp of 165F). Baking time will depend on thickness of chicken; bake as necessary and until done. Note – Peppers will release their juices as the bake; before the photos I simply drained off the juice from the pan.
- Optionally garnish with cilantro, salt, pepper, and serve immediately. Dish is best warm and fresh but extra will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Notes
- Storage:
- - Fridge: This recipe will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
- - Freezer: Leftover freeze well for up to 3 months. The veggies will lose some of their crispness upon freezing and thawing, but I don't mind.- Reheating: I use my microwave for quickness and ease and reheat my leftovers for about 30 seconds on high, or as needed. However, you can use your stovetop or whatever is best suited for you.
