A delightful twist on a classic chicken dish, combining ranch flavors with a crispy coating.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish.
Greasing the dish prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ranch seasoning mix, panko breadcrumbs, and grated parmesan cheese.
Mix thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of flavors.
Dip each chicken breast into the melted butter, ensuring it is fully coated.
Using tongs keeps your hands clean and makes the process easier.
Coat the buttered chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Pressing the coating ensures it sticks well and creates a crispy texture.
Place the coated chicken breasts in the greased baking dish and bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown.
Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Serve the crispy ranch chicken hot with your favorite sides, and enjoy!
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.
