How to make Ranch Chicken breasts:
This recipe is really easy to make. Get your chicken breasts ready, and then prepare the breadcrumbs and ranch seasoning mix.
Coat the chicken in the mayonnaise and then dredge them in the breadcrumb mix.
Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and then bake in the oven. Serve with your sides and enjoy!
Ingredients:
- Chicken Breasts - boneless and skinless.
- Mayonnaise
- Dry Ranch Seasoning
- Unseasoned Breadcrumbs - using a seasoned breadcrumb will alter the flavor a little but not by much. You can use seasoned breadcrumbs if you have them.
Directions:
Step One - Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray or parchment paper.
- Tip: To make sure all chicken breast is even in size for cooking pound chicken as needed to a more even size.
Step Two - In a separate shallow bowl mix together breadcrumbs and ranch seasoning.
Step Three - Place mayonnaise in a shallow bowl.
Step Four - Place chicken breast into bowl with mayonnaise and coat it on all sides then allow any excess to drip off before moving it to your next bowl.
Step Five - Place mayonnaise coated chicken breast into your bowl with ranch breadcrumb bowl. Evenly coat chicken with breadcrumbs.
Step Six - Place chicken on your prepared baking sheet and repeat with each chicken breast until they are all coated.
Step Seven - Bake for 23-25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and reached a safe temperature (165 degrees F).
- Tip: Cooking time can vary depending on the size and thickness of your chicken.
Can I use frozen chicken breast?
For this recipe, I would suggest using fresh or thawed chicken.
Using frozen can change your cooking time and the breadcrumbs will not stick to them as well.
Also, when baking, as the frozen chicken thaws out it could cause the breadcrumbs to run off.
