Quick and Easy Ranch Chicken


 After cooking all day at work today, Jonathan mentioned that his bake sale for school was in a couple days. So, as soon as I got home, I threw a load of clothes in the washer, whipped up 2 batches of brownies and threw them in the oven and then remembered reading this recipe on the Internet. I think it was on Pinterest..seems like all of my recent recipes come from there. This recipe was SO stinkin quick and easy!!

Quick & Easy Ranch Chicken

Chicken Breasts/Tenders
Ranch
Progresso Bread Crumbs - Italian Style
(Optional) Parmesan Cheese

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Pour ranch into a shallow dish and bread crumbs into a separate shallow dish.

(Optional): Sometimes I like to mix shredded Parmesan cheese in with the bread crumbs.
3. Spray baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.

4. Trim fat off of chicken.
5. Dip chicken into ranch and cover with ranch on both sides.

6. Dip chicken into bread crumbs to cover on both sides.
7. Place chicken in baking dish and bake for 20-30 minutes depending on thickness of chicken.

Then serve with a favorite side!  The ranch layer around the chicken keeps the chicken super moist and super delicious.  And owing to the spices that are already in the ranch and in the bread crumbs, no extra spices are needed.  Super simple yet super delectable

            I was in such a hurry I forgot to take pictures at first.
            First you dip the chicken in Ranch Dressing then in the bread crumbs.Make sure you coat both sides.
 
       I didn't need much since I was just cooking for 2.
 
 

 
Then you bake it at 400 until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees which for me was right at 30 min. This was very tasty! Jonathan and I both really liked it. I served it with what we call boxed noodles and a salad.

So, 2 batches of brownies with walnuts and chocolate chips done, laundry in the dryer and dinner on the table. Yeah! Thanks for the great recipe MommaPack!
